Language, Diversity, and Equity in the ELA Classroom

Catalog description

In this course, Relay students will learn to leverage the science of reading and foundational reading skills to more fully and equitably support students’ reading comprehension. Relay students will focus on the reading comprehension strand of Scarborough’s Rope to plan ways of building students’ background knowledge, increase vocabulary acquisition, and support their continued development of literacy skills. Leveraging their long-term instructional planning skills, Relay students will design culturally responsive and inclusive instructional plans that support the reading comprehension of the range of readers in their class.
