I learned phonics while reading Dick & Jane booksI suppose they could be used in addition to phonics, but their repetitive nature was designed to help children memorize words. Meanwhile, children steeped in phonics were learning to decode words.

Hmmmm.... I learned phonics while reading Dick & Jane books. As did I and I suspect we are all "victims" of older/experienced teachers who saw the folly of "Whole Word" for what it was and folded phonics into their classroom reading time. God Bless such teachers!
