ED 306 Strategies for Emergent and Content Literacy: K-12

(3 credits)
This course addresses research-based instructional strategies for teaching literacy (including language development, reading, writing, and speaking) to learners of all instructional and grade levels, as well as practical and effective modifications for diverse learners (including struggling readers, English language learners, and students with disabilities in reading). Strategic literacy instruction through the content areas of social studies and science, particularly in relation to post-elementary learners, will also be emphasized. Formative and summative assessments of emergent and content literacy, including components of literacy (phonological awareness, word analysis, comprehension, vocabulary, fluency) will also be addressed, with an emphasis on assessments and progress monitoring that communicate the student’s progress most clearly to parents, teachers, and the students themselves. ED 306S  is designed for students in a Secondary Education certification program.

Field experiences required.  See background check requirement policy.

Prerequisite: ED 110 , ED 212 , ED 214
