All Cues are NOT Created Equal with Claude Goldenberg

Article:

Tierney & Pearson reply (III): On 3-cueing

“We’ll have to agree to disagree.” Maybe.

https://claudegoldenberg.substack.com/p/tierney-and-pearson-reply-iii-on

Quote:

So….. if by 3-cueing Rob and David mean what David meant in his 1976 article, that “mature reading” involves using syntactic, semantic, and grapho-phonemic “sources of information,” I willingly agree.

But if they mean that 3-cueing tells teachers that when teaching beginning and novice readers they should teach all three “cues” simultaneously and as equally important, we disagree. – Dr. Claude Goldenberg
