Sold a Story: How Teaching Kids to Read Went So Wrong
By Emily Hanford
Emily Hanford, an award-winning education reporter who has produced groundbreaking podcasts including At a Loss for Words: How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers, Hard Words: Why aren't kids being taught to read?, and Hard to Read: How American schools fail kids with dyslexia is releasing an eagerly awaited new podcast series. This series, Sold a Story: How Teaching Kids to Read Went So Wrong exposes a truth - for decades, cognitive scientists have known that a popular approach to teaching reading was based on an incorrect idea. Educators didn't know about this research, and as a result, millions of children around the country didn't learn to read well at school.
