The Shameful practice of many Americans


Here is a post I had written on 3.8.2020 which I had not published.
 
One of the most shameful practices of many American Educators is the fact that they bury their heads in the ground when they are cornered by questions they cannot respond to.

Reid Lyon and David Boulton of the Children of the Code fame are just two of the many.

My comment on David Boulton's 'Children of the Code' was deleted after a few months.
 How can anyone accept the stupid statements made by David Boulton such as the following:

Children of the Code avoided advocating solutions so as not to be dismissed as having an agenda other than learning deeper into the challenge.
It has been 15 years since the project started and how much longer do they need?

Timothy Shanahan ignores comments which he cannot respond to. He wants empirical evidence to prove that consonants should not be taught with extraneous sounds.
That sounds really silly coming from a so-called educator. Read one of many posts on him here.
