I think you're both right and wrong. We're pushing conceptualization WAY too early in schools before the basics are grasped. Students can't conceptualize what they don't have a firm foundation of.

reading is teh best example

you can't read written text, obviously, until you learn how to read that language

you can't analyze written text, until you read a lot and develop your reading skills, especially within the subject

these things take steps

That reminds me. When the Dems called for public funding of computers for the poor kids in failing schools I thought "wait a minute... those kids are mostly illiterate. Computers are useless if you can't read or write."

If I were illiterate I'd go to trade school and learn to be a plumber and charge you $200 bucks an hour to fix your toilet.
