Oregon aggressively adopted the whole word identification thing instead of phonics. Our kid was behind because of it. The district only noticed when they went back to phonics. The state wont be behind for long, but holy shit it fucked over so many kid’s futures.
What about the other 12 states?
I like to think that Oregon isn’t included because it shifts the curve too aggressively. To the left.
