This annotation reveals the root cause of America's education crisis and the cycle of multigenerational poverty. After years in the education reform movement, Natalie Wexler discovered that the issue lies not with common scapegoats like lazy teachers or inadequate facilities, but rather in the elementary school curriculum's overwhelming focus on decontextualized reading comprehension skills, neglecting essential knowledge. Wexler combines history, research, and compelling narratives to expose this critical flaw in the education system, which has been largely ignored by reformers, journalists, and policymakers, leaving many parents unaware. The narrative not only highlights the systemic problems but also showcases innovative educators who are breaking free from entrenched practices. These educators are experiencing the rewards of their efforts, as students become excited about learning and gain the knowledge and vocabulary necessary for success. To truly reform the education system and unlock the potential of the most disadvantaged children, it is imperative to address this overlooked issue.
