Children can be taught to read and write and to do both with ease and competence. In spite of all the evidence today to the contrary, that is one thing we must keep in mind. Now more than ever before, the ability to make out what others have written and to put oneself across clearly are necessary adult skills. They are skills no one is born with and that everyone who is to become literate must learn.
Given a chance, children can learn to use words exactly and vividly to write about the world they are so busy discovering, as well as to convey their thoughts and feelings. They can learn how to tell a story, how to describe accurately an event they have watched or taken part in, how to give directions to another person who wants to go somewhere or make something, how to organize an argument, and how to share with others their moods of excitement, anger, fright and happiness. This much is within the reach not of just a few especially talented or privileged children but of every child, or it should be. Given a proper chance to learn how to write, children can even learn to enjoy the process of discovering how to communicate more and more meaningfully.
The facts are well known. The question is what we are to do. We must reject most of the current theories as to why our children are not learning. They are simply poor excuses for our own failures. It is said, for example, that television is so attractive to children that it is keeping them from reading. But watching television for reasonable periods of time and with some attention paid by parents to the quality of the programs is at least as useful in learning to read as the same number of hours spent roller skating or playing halls. It is certainly true that many children would benefit by more active play out of doors, but this would not turn them into readers. Just because children learned to read in the past does not mean that they spent all their school lessons required. But it is also true that children today who do learn to read and write do not treat television as their only resource.
According to the passage, in order to become literate, a child must ______.
