The last time I looked Norway was at top on international tests. They didn't start to teach reading until age 8 or 9 and then kids get a playtime break every hour.

@buchananshelle3 @susanoha Good pt. And PreK and K reading assessments have been taking place for YEARS! Along with drills and more tests. If it worked why do children still have reading problems? Maybe bring back PLAY!

There should no longer be any excuse for not lowering class size, which has been proven thru rigorous research to benefit all kids but especially those who are poor. Teachers know this, parents too, but where are those who control policies in our schools? https://www.chalkbeat.org/2021/4/9/22375692/biden-proposes-doubling-title-i-sending-high-poverty-schools

With so many worrying about learning loss in young children, I thought it important to dig out this old post about reading. Please remember that formal reading instruction used to begin in first grade. https://nancyebailey.com/2014/02/02/setting-children-up-to-hate-reading/
