READ 541 - Elementary School Literacy Instruction(3 credits)
Intended as a content area graduate course in reading for the elementary school educator, this course features many instructional practices that promote language, literacy and learning in the developing literate. In a review of current research, teachers learn and apply identified “best practices” in listening, speaking, reading, writing, viewing and producing. Topics include assessment, word analysis, vocabulary, narrative and expository text structures, guided reading and writing, comprehension strategies and study skills. Through an understanding of theories that support best practices, educators develop specific strategies for observing and supporting students as they become successful, independent and thoughtful readers and writers. Offered spring and fall semesters, and summer session II.
