They shouldn't be taught just to pass tests or read articles. Being able to communicate is the most useful skill Colleges and Universities should provide.

Decoding is not our goal. Reading leads to comprehension.<br />Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10498164032220622771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467650439279459823.post-16398729480151000642012-05-14T01:30:45.935-07:002012-05-14T01:30:45.935-07:00Isn't it a shame that in the year 2012 Speakin...Isn't it a shame that in the year 2012 Speaking English isn't the ministry's formost goal! I'm an el. school teacher and i see how schools begin teaching English with the ABC. I believe this not only unmotivates language learning but is also much harder for LD students who could have had a less frustrating chance if talking came before reading and writing. But you know the ministry gives ESL hours only from 4th grade and then gives a meitzav in the 5th. Therefore until alot of policies change the situation will stay the same sadly not in the right direction.ada frhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11158851660772478195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467650439279459823.post-33325942023249647942011-11-17T00:10:21.309-08:002011-11-17T00:10:21.309-08:00Thank you so much for that nicely written piece of...Thank you so much for that nicely written piece of text.<br />http://www.collegetutors.co.uk/collegetutors.co.ukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12698291159412913482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467650439279459823.post-20326525611647225072011-07-06T22:09:10.589-07:002011-07-06T22:09:10.589-07:00This is wise advice indeed!!
