The way elementary school students in Ohio learn to read could soon change after elected leaders say some of the methods being used aren't working.
Governor Mike DeWine called out in his State of the State address in January for a renewed focus on literacy, especially on a phonics-based approach.
For Dr. Anna Iacovetta, an education professor at John Carroll University, it was a struggle watching her son learn to read using a balanced literacy approach, which was a different approach from how she was taught as a child and from how she trains educators in the state. Last year, the podcast"Sold A Story" brought the issue of how children learn to read to the forefront.
"It's not just enough to focus on one piece of the puzzle," he said."When I talk to our members, I don't know anyone who is 100% pro-phonics or anti-phonics. I don't know of anyone who's 100% pro-balanced literacy or anti-balanced literacy. I think teachers use the strategies that they know work." DiMauro says the next steps will be key when it comes to the state possibly implementing these proposals.
