Building upon ED 611, this course integrates theory into an interactive model of interventions to support early, emergent, transitional and fluent readers in Grades 3-12. Students will learn how to observe, assess, and evaluate behaviors and skills; create literacy learning plans that harness cultural and linguistic funds of knowledge; and intensify instruction with small group and individualized teaching. Activities prepare students to advocate and design instruction in partnership with families and communities within an equitable multi-tiered system of support. Practicum included.
