BKED 305 - Early Childhood Literacy Development


Credits: 3
Emphasizes the process of developmental literacy skills in children ages birth to kindergarten. The course is an in-depth experience providing students with the opportunity to recognize and describe the developmental stages in literacy acquisition. Participants identify factors that influence early literacy development (readiness, family, medical) and design integrated, developmentally appropriate lesson plans. Students examine different literary genres and themes appropriate to young children with an emphasis on resources for children of culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Guidelines for the implementation of appropriate literature-based activities will be addressed throughout the course. Students present a professional development session for a selected audience.

Offered: F.
