This course provides a 60-hour supervised practicum in elementary reading instruction for learners working with students in kindergarten through grade 5. Participants apply evidence-based reading assessment and instructional practices while working with a focal K-5 learner in a school-based setting. Emphasis is placed on analyzing reading performance, identifying instructional priorities, planning and delivering targeted reading intervention, monitoring learner progress, adjusting instruction in response to data, and evaluating instructional effectiveness. Participants also engage in observation, collaboration, professional learning, and communication with educators and families while documenting their professional practice.
