The process of learning to read is like climbing a ladder with incremental rungs to conquer, or scaling a mountain with several peaks and a summit. It’s best described through metaphorical examples.

He highlights why it is important to see phonics as a foundation and what really matters in phonics instruction: best practices, engagement and time management.
