This course focuses on the reading and writing connection in inclusive elementary classrooms. Students explore writing processes and reading comprehension strategies, with a focus on purpose and audience. Disciplinary literacy is investigated as a means of developing and demonstrating content knowledge. Attention is paid to arts and technology integration; visual, multimodal, graphical, and critical literacies; and the support of linguistically and culturally diverse learners through curriculum development, text set design, workshop structures, and collaborative learning.
