I love this idea.

The side note when learning to read smaller is definitely better.

The ideal situation is learning to read one on one. That's how I taught my kids to read. You can fit there with them and spend as much time as you need. But really it should only take fifteen or twenty minutes a day.

Of course.Not all kids are lucky enough to have that

One on one is best small groups. Next and then larger classes.

I think stubenville, ohio is a great example of how effective small groups can be

I just had a great conversation with Linda Diamond, the author of Teaching Reading, the CORE sourcebook. A list of curriculum is being compiled. She is more than happy to help.

Linda is lovely and passionate, but I don't think people involved in the authoring of curricula are the people to tap on these efforts. Conflicts of interest should be avoided, I suspect the field would agree.
