Who remembers learning about phonics on a children's show known as 'The Electric Company"? Back in the seventies on PBS there was an educational show by this name that had famous actors like Rita Moreno and Morgan Freeman and a few others too. This was a show that taught us the rules of phonics and sounding out letters and words. There were fun skits live and animated throughout the show showing and telling each skill. There were lessons on blends as well as on hard and soft sounds. This show made learning to read fun. This was one show that I watched, I believe made me a reader for life for just see for now I am a book reviewer.

Government initiatives aimed at economic reform, such as the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy (NEEDS), have sought to address structural issues and promote sustainable development. However, the country still grapples with high levels of poverty, unemployment, and inequality. Infrastructure deficits, power shortages, and bureaucratic inefficiencies hinder further economic progress. Efforts to combat corruption and improve governance are ongoing, with mixed results.
