Tom--Thanks so much for your detailed reply, this is very helpful for my work.

Next to my desk is a library volume of your  "Reading  for Working."  

(Also next to my desk is a small sewn cloth book, "My Indestructible ABC book."  edited by "Uncle Herbert" in 1879, for J.B. Lippincott & Co.)

>From a book about Septima Clark and the beginning of the Freedom Schools-"All Bernice had to use was that voter registration form.  She called each person up to the table to read lines from the form;  then she asked them each to write their name in cursive.  That's how she found out where they were in reading and writing."  

Good to hear from you on the context issue and get this piece of back stage information.
