A recent national assessment of Educational Progress sponsored by the Education Commission of the States Indicated a need for improved mastery of basic writing mechanics. Difficulties with spelling, word choice andolh-- er skills were noted by students. There was also a strong reluctance to write at all with 29 percent In the 26 to 35 age group, for example, to write at all when given a choice. "In curriculum building De Right to Read Program Is a good foundation toward Im - provement of language arts, said Mrs. Burnett. Students In this district have accepted a basic English individualized Instruction program so well that there have been requests for special tutoring In math and social studies.
