The results showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in phonemic awareness and word recognition tasks, suggesting that phonemic awareness training is effective in enhancing early reading skills in kindergarten children.
This essay looks at the problem of inadequate education for children with special needs in the United States. The author argues that the current system is not designed to meet the needs of these children and that teachers are not properly trained to teach them. The solution, according to the author, is to create a separate system of education for children with special needs. I agree with the author that the current system is not adequate, but I disagree with the idea of creating a separate system. I believe that all children, regardless of their abilities, should be included in the same educational system.
