 I watched the first episode of an excellent documentary called Can't Read Can't write on monday night. Nine illiterate adults enrol for a six month reading course with a determined and enthusiastic teacher Phil Beadle. The programme highlights the poor quality of the materials given to Beadle. Eventually, after doing his own reasearch, he decides to use the course test book we are using The Phonics Handbook by Sue Lloyd. It is extremely interesting to see how adults use the book and the different ways they interpret it. It is also very emotional to watch. It's on every Monday night for the next few weeks. Inspirational stuff.
