Recent media stories about education have featured the "Science of
Reading", whose proponents typically present the systematic
teaching of phonics as a one-size-fits-all method that guarantees
reading success for all students. But as literacy scholars Patricia
Paugh and Deborah MacPhee demonstrate, the decoding of words is
only one of many skills that are central to an effective early
literacy education. In Learning to Be Literate, they present a
four-part framework for active literacy learning that eschews
oppositional arguments about different approaches and instead
situates children as meaning makers: the whole point of being
literate. There is no single or simple solution that will fit every
child. But by using the ALL framework to inform instruction,
educators can help young learners think deeply about ideas and
language at the same time as they learn to work out the sounds and
symbol systems of language.
