EDUCA 323 - Elementary Reading Instructional/Literacy Lab


This course emphasizes theoretical and instructional issues in the development of key reading skills including phonics, phonemic awareness, comprehension, fluency and vocabulary development. In a school-based setting, students engage in tutorial sessions to assess and instruct emergent readers as they develop language and literacy skills. Selection and use of appropriate instructional materials including leveled texts and high quality children’s literature will be examined. Emphasis is consistently placed on the teacher’s facilitative role in meeting the needs of diverse learners, and on the goal of literacy as a tool for meaningful communication. Prerequisite: Admission to Teacher Preparation Program. Co-requisite: EDUCA 350 - Field Experiences II . (3)
