Minnesota, Reading Legislation, and Tarot Cards
About this episode
This episode discusses Minnesota's reading legislation, The Read Act, and the implications of teaching certain types of reading instruction.
In Minnesota our special reading law called The Read Act. The Read Act makes certain kinds of reading instruction mandatory and other kinds illegal. I will confess that during the last two years at Minnesota State University, Mankato, I’ve been teaching illegal reading instruction. Every day I expect masked READ agents to kick down my door, handcuff me, and drag me off to a LETRS training facility somewhere in Wyoming or Texas.
