[Reading-hall-of-fame] My twitter comment on ILA brief, not news for this group....

[Stephen Krashen]

“The comprehensive studies of Reading First interventions that had an intensive focus on decoding indicated positive effects for decoding ability but not for comprehension.”  

>From the ILA report on Children Experiencing Reading Difficulties. https://tinyurl.com/wnc4t99.

Not only true for Reading First but also in a number of other studies:  

Krashen, S. 2009. Does intensive reading instruction contribute to reading comprehension? Knowledge Quest 37 (4): 72-74.) https://tinyurl.com/jc6x8mk
