Sometimes, though, it is difficult to know just how to do that because teaching methods change as research on
basic reading and reading
comprehension identifies better
strategies to develop specially designed instruction for reading disorders such as dyslexia.
For example, both elementary and secondary teachers in Michigan reported spending over three hours per week on
comprehension strategies and having students respond to what they read, and slightly more than one - half hour per week on
basic skills, such as phonics and word recognition.
