Description

This is the second of a two course literacy sequence required for the Graduate Program leading to initial licensure as an Elementary teacher. This course addresses the subject matter knowledge necessary for integrating the English Language Arts when teaching in an elementary classroom where learners have different academic needs and are socially, culturally and linguistically diverse. It prepares pre-service elementary teachers to address three of the four areas important to the Common Core State Standards (and related MA ELA Curriculum Frameworks): Reading Literature, Reading Informational text, and Writing. The class will focus on teaching students to become critically literature as they analyze, comprehend, and compose genres important to academic and social success in the 21st century including children's literature, informational texts found in content area disciplines, and multimodal texts.

This course is closed for registration.
