EDUC 250 - Reading and Social Studies
3 Credits
Topics and experiences are organized to promote interactions among learners and teachers in the elementary grades. The inquiry approach is used to create a learning environment that actively engages students, extends students’ ideas and develops problem-solving skills. In addition, reading social studies text requires specialized knowledge of text structure. As a result, all elementary teachers must be able to work with all students regardless of their reading ability. Therefore, this course is a study of the cultural, social and psycholinguistic principles and practices underlying reading and learning to read in today’s society. Included are study of comprehension, word recognition, the reading and writing connection, and assessment, as they interrelate.
