Reading Part 2 provides teachers with the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and understanding of the foundations and underlying vision and philosophy of reading instruction. Teachers will learn and apply current educational theory regarding reading instruction, program planning, and assessment and evaluation to create independent, strategic readers. They will gain a deep understanding of balanced, cross-curricular literacy and, in a culminating task, apply and synthesize their learning in a balanced reading unit. They will actively participate in, apply and reflect on their learning. They will further develop an appreciation of the importance of literacy in students’ lives and will deepen their empathy and ability to program for struggling readers.
