Race/ethnicity, gender, class, disability and cultural authenticity in multicultural literature are discussed. The primary objectives of the course are to enable students to expand their strategies for reading culturally diverse literature, become familiar with resources related to multicultural literature, explore cultural, literacy and socio-political issues related to Children's/adolescent literature and to consider the role that multicultural literature plays in a literacy curriculum.

LLED 870Teaching Reading & Writing to K-12 English Learners3

This course prepares students to develop reading and writing instruction that supports the academic development of school-aged English learners (ELs) with a primary focus on reading. An overarching goal of the course is to promote an understanding of learning language as a process of expanding linguistic resources to engage in various contexts, with different participants/audiences and for a variety of purposes. Class participants will critically analyze reading/writing theories and research in reference to bilingual/ESL reading/writing practices. As part of this overview, students will analyze and evaluate current second language (L2) reading/writing approaches and strategies in home language (L1) and L2 literacy development. Thus, the course content emphasizes the theoretical underpinnings of and practical applications for integrating language and literacy instruction for diverse ELs.
