The most brutal satire in American literature (Wed., May 24, 2023)
Reading is the central skill we need in school. That is why the far-left has so persistently tried to discredit and discard phonics. Instead, children must memorize the English language one sight-word at a time. Folly.
The passage discussed here is from a famous novel. You might think this satire would laugh the education establishment out of the room. Harper Lee handles this put-down so craftily that most of the targets don't realize that they are being laughed at.
Ask anybody if they remember the education satire in To Kill a Mockingbird. I'll bet not one in 20 remembers. It's not just the pedagogical technique that is the problem. It's the pompous lockstep of the young teachers.
