Episode description as stored
Molly Woodworth had a secret: She couldn’t read very well. She fought her way through text by looking at the first letter of a word and thinking of something that made sense.  Reading was slow and laborious. Then she learned that her daughter's school was actually teaching kids to read that way. In this documentary, originally published in August 2019, host Emily Hanford reveals that many kids are being taught the habits of struggling readers. Winner of a Gracie Award and finalist for an EWA Public Service Award.   Read more: How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers Support this show:   Donate to APM Reports Dive deeper into Sold a Story with a multi-part email series from host Emily Hanford.
