Hooked on Phonics
We who have taught, or love children who have been taught, know this is funny!
From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher:
My five-year old students are learning to read. Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,
"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"
I took a deep breath, then asked..."What did you call it?"
"It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!"
And so it does...
" AFRICAN Elephant "
Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful?
