Reading???

Actually, in order to teach my pupils a 'Reading", I had hundreds of "Questions" in my head!!. I was forced to learn a whole new set of symbols and sound-spelling correspondences. At first these strange-looking squiggles and lines were meaningless to me.  I tried everything I use with my students to learn them as quickly as possible. 

Just For Us..........

"Learning is finding out what we already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers, and teachers." -- Richard Bach
