Why do people go nuts on this issue? Phonics is a subset of reading, learning how to read. It is a skill, it is not reading per se. Just like learning how to saw a board is not bulding a house, it is a skill in same. Severely disabled readers can't manage to put the sound with the symbol; other ways have to be found. What people have to do is LEARN HOW TO THINK about this issue. those caps are a shout, by the way. Thanks for the post. Andrea
