The twenty-first century Reading War is, in fact, nothing new, but
some of the details are unique to our current culture driven by
social media. This volume seeks to examine the current Reading War
in the context of the historical recurrence of public and political
debates around student reading abilities and achievement. Grounded
in a media fascination with the "science of reading" and fueled by
a rise in advocates for students with dyslexia, the current Reading
War has resulted in some deeply troubling reading policy, grade
retention and intensive phonics programs. This primer for parents,
policy makers, and people who care confronts some of the most
compelling but misunderstood aspects of teaching reading in the
U.S. while also offering a way toward ending the Reading War in
order to serve all students, regardless of their needs. The
revised/expanded 2nd edition adds developments around the "science
of reading," including the expanding impact on state policy and
legislation as well as robust additions to the research base around
teaching students to read.
