ELSPED 4117 - 60 Differentiating Literacy and Social Studies for All Students

This course focuses on learning about differentiated content reading, writing, and social studies methods of teaching. Students use reading and writing strategies to support learning about social science content and the differentiation process for experiences that support inclusive elementary classrooms. The focus on supporting diverse learners is woven throughout this course. The coursework is linked to grouping, assessment for learning, and strategies for discussions and responses to readings. An integrated unit will be collaboratively designed with specific attention to differentiated literacy and social studies for diverse learners and could be implemented in student teaching.
