ED 6050 - Middle School Methods of Teaching Reading and Writing Across the Disciplines


(ED 4050)
(3)

Middle school teachers typically teach more than one subject which requires them to be proficient in various content methods. Because reading and writing are cross disciplinary skills, students will come to understand how the use of reading and writing strategies such as journals, reaction logs, and investigation can improve comprehension and reasoning skills in middle school students. In this course, the student will focus on the pedagogical techniques, content standards, and the nature of the disciplines as they apply to middle school.
