School boards should be pressured as much as possible to teach reading via the Direct Instruction method of phonics. And if they wont, theres what I call the magical book: Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons, by Englemann with Phyllis Haddox and Elaine Bruner. Ive seen this method work in my own home, having used it with both of my children and watched that light go on.John McWhorter, The New York Times
