This course focuses on the most current research, theory, and methods of content-based literacy strategies (pre-reading, guided reading, post-reading, and writing) in single subject classrooms at the secondary level. Teacher candidates will implement teaching and learning strategies that use critical thinking, provide meaningful context, and incorporate student knowledge to develop a comprehensive content area lesson plan. Guided field experience, based on work in a single subject content area classroom, is incorporated into the course requirements.
