EDUT-552 Methods and Assessment in Literacy for Early Childhood

This course focuses on implementation of assessment and instructional strategies used to teach literacy to young children. It provides foundational knowledge and skills related to literacy integration in core content areas. Multiple methods are explored, including simulations, cooperative learning, group and individual learning, and direct instruction. Three actual units are created: one only dealing with reading skills, one only dealing with writing skills, and one integrated literacy unit. Units are designed using a standard lesson plan format. Self-evaluation is also considered via professional reflection and goal writing.
