In ED 315, Language and Literacy II, you will continue to build on the information you have learned in ED 313 and your practical application of this information through your hours of field experience. You will begin this term with a review of course content from the previous Language and Literacy class before you delve more deeply into the content of ED 315.

Decoding and Word Recognition
Not published to students
Current
Learning to read words is fundamental to understanding text. Although proficient readers use multiple strategies for figuring out unfamiliar words, the most reliable strategy is decoding, the ability to convert a word from print to speech. To ensure the development of proficiency in reading, students must be taught to decode regular words, to identify irregular words, and to use word parts to read multisyllabic words. During this topic, you will more specifically about phonics, irregular word reading, and multisyllabic word reading. This will be grounded in the research of Marilyn Adams (Adams Model of Skilled Reading) and Linnea Ehri (Ehri's Phases of Word Recognition Development).

Reading Fluency
Not published to students
Current
Effective reading instruction must include instruction in reading fluency. Reading fluency is complex and multifaceted and is made up of at least three key elements: accuracy, automaticity, and prosody. Fluency instruction should be focused on ensuring that word reading becomes automatic so that readers have sufficient cognitive resources to understand what they read. Therefore, fluency instruction will vary across the grades and developmental needs of the learner. Teachers can think of fluency as a bridge between decoding and comprehension.
Vocabulary and Word Work
Not published to students
Current
Vocabulary is the knowledge of words and word meaning. Vocabulary knowledge is not something that can ever be fully mastered; it is something that expands and deepens over the course of a lifetime. Vocabulary is acquired incidentally through indirect exposure to words and intentionally through explicit instruction in specific words and word-learning strategies. In ED 315, Language and Literacy I, we will focus on incidental vocabulary learning focused on rich oral language experiences through wide reading. You will ground the information from this topic in the Alabama Course of Standards for English Language Arts as is appropriate for early learners. You will learn more about intentional vocabulary teaching in ED 316, Language and Literacy III.

Comprehension
Not published to students
Current
Comprehension is often viewed as the "essence of reading". It involves three interrelated elements-the text that is to be comprehended, the reader who is doing the comprehension, and the activity and related tasks in which comprehension is a part-all set within a larger social context that shapes and is shaped by the reader. In ED 315, Language and Literacy I, you will build learn appropriate strategies to build comprehension with literary and nonfiction texts for learners in early grades as related to the Alabama Course of Study for English Language Arts. Comprehension as a component of literacy instruction will be further addressed in ED 316, Language and Literacy III.

The Reading-Writing Connection
Not published to students
Current
The effort of writing nurtures better command of language. However, every aspect of writing is demanding. It is the latest developing and most complex language skill. It takes longer to learn than reading. Writing requires the integration of a number of component skills that can be roughly classified as lower-level or mechanical skills, and higher-level or conceptual skills. In Ed 315, Language and Learning II, and ED 316, Language and Learning III, you will continue to learn about the foundational skills related to the conceptual skills.

The Science of Learning to Read
Not published to students
Current
The term scientifically based reading instruction was first defined in 1998 as the "application of rigorous, systematic, and objective procedures to obtain valid knowledge relevant to reading development, reading instruction and reading difficulties." In this topic, you will learn about how to recognize effective research, Scarborough's Rope, and the Simple View of Reading.

What Makes Reading Hard and How do Teachers Help?
Not published to students
Current
The students you will teach come to school with a wide variety of skills, abilities, and interests as well as varying proficiency in English and other languages. Some students struggle, while others are right on level or even above it. Diverse learners demand instruction that meets the needs of students with reading difficulties, with disabilities, advanced learners, and English-language learners. In this topic, you will learn about the diversity of learners and how you will use your knowledge of the structure of English and the structure of Spanish (and the recognition that different languages have different structures) to address the individual needs of students. This topic will also provide information and instruction about the role of multitiered systems of support (MTSS) and response to intervention (RTI) as methods that can be used to help all learners reach appropriate levels of reading proficiency.

Early Literacy
Not published to students
Current
Literacy knowledge developed in the early years can be an excellent predictor of students' later reading success. Print awareness, letter knowledge, and phonological awareness form a foundation on which literacy learning rests and will be the focus of this topic of instruction. Although these skills are often thought of as discrete and very different from one another, they are interrelated and work together to form what is considered early literacy development.
