If we do ONE thing as teachers, it’s gotta be teaching them to READ!
Literacy is a powerful tool that supercharges all other subjects and allows for independence, the ability to understand other perspectives, and the ability to use resources to problem solve.

No one is saying that we shouldn't teach high frequency words. HOW we teach them literally changes how the brain is reading. I only teach high frequency words in the context of phoneme-grapheme relationships.
