Effective Strategies for Reading and Writing Across the Content Areas

The goals and priorities for this course are intended for teachers to build and improve upon literacy across the content areas, including foundational expectations for disciplinary literacy.

Additionally, teachers will identify and apply these literacy strategies to help their students make deeper connections with the core academic disciplines by creating a hands-on lesson that will be applicable in the classroom.

Connections with the Danielson’s Framework will be integrated throughout the course with real-life, hands-on application of integrating research-based strategies to help students improve their effectiveness to read, write, speak and listen in core academic disciplines.
