139: The Literacy Crisis in America (w/ Heritage Mom, Amber O'Neal Johnston)
Manage episode 444701303 series 2324589
The literacy crisis in America is a deeply troubling issue in our modern day. For years, public schooled students have been trailing behind where they ought to be in literacy, reading comprehension, and more. Since the pandemic, this problem has skyrocketed. But this is an issue that affects homeschoolers as well. Not only are many people leaving the public schools and coming into homeschooling, but many people your students will meet-- whether in college, the workplace, or their personal lives-- will have been public schooled. Students must learn to read so they can read to learn, and no one is immune to the issues that have caused this literacy gap. Today, we're joined once again by Heritage Mom Amber O'Neal Johnston, as we discuss how this literacy crisis came to be, and what we as homeschoolers can do to push back against it.
