The New Anti-Phonics

Groff, Patrick

Elementary School Journal, 77, 4, 323, Mar 77

Shows two major handicaps in the anti-phonics movement which suggest that the future of the movement is doubtful: (1) the demonstrable weakness in both the theory and method of anti-phonics; (2) the increasing confidence that publishes and editors of widely used basal readers are placing in phonics.
