Glad people are using phonics however, reading from the back of the word to the front is not as efficient as reading and decoding from left to right. This is done in the reading program I use, also a multisensory reading program that is direct and systematic is optimal. If we want to reach all our kids we need to use the most efficient reading programs on the market.

Yes, you are wrong. In today's schools, the classroom population is very diverse and you have children with special needs such as students with autism, learning disabilities, and ELL students. In a self-contained classroom or resource room, it is very common that students of this age are being taught phonics.

OK idea - but aren't these kids way too old for this? shouldn't this be done in very early 1st grade if not kindergarten? These kids should be reading connected text by now, no? Or am I wrong? Willing to be set straight!

I wanna contact Brian, one of the kids on this video, and I would like the teacher on the video to teach me how to play the game they're playing. You know, the game where the teacher picks a word from a "magic word bag" (or something like that) and puts it on the board.

I am enjoying your videos, and this is a great activity. However, if you were 'really' introducing word families, wouldn't it be better to teach one family at a time? This lesson would most likely be better served as a review/ re-cap/extension on both families. It is clear that these kids already know word families- hence their reactions -- verbal and non-verbal.
