3 Credit Hours
In this course, candidates focus on the various aspects of literacy development: phonemic awareness, morphological awareness, vocabulary development and acquisition, word knowledge and acquisition, reading fluency and comprehension, and the products, processes and stages of writing. Candidates discuss theoretical models and philosophies of a balanced literacy approach toward teaching and apply literacy methods, techniques and strategies demonstrated throughout the course in their own classrooms. A focus on EL learners, literacy assessments, children’s literature, and the Common Core standards at the PreK-8 grade level will also be addressed.
