Denebe, this may or may not be helpful. It has popped unbidden into my head. As a volunteer I teach children to read....children for whom reading does not come easily. Tonight I've imagined a 5 year old saying to me, "Gee, when I was 4 I didn't even know the alphabet. NOW you're asking me to do something with it? You're asking me to build words, you're asking me to read? You're telling me I'm not good enough??"
Just something to ponder. Or not.
