Description

In this microcredential program, participants will explore how the science of literacy development informs how adults in children’s lives can provide particular supports to help those children become skilled readers.

Program Objectives

After participating in this program, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the four key brain processors involved in reading: Phonological, Orthographic, Meaning, and Context.
  • Support children developing oral language and phonological skills by implementing activities like encouraging full sentences, engaging in multi-turn conversations, and teaching nursery rhymes and word-sound games.
  • Support children’s fluent reading by applying corrective techniques when listening to a child read and modeling fluent reading with appropriate speed, accuracy, and intonation.
  • Support children’s phonics and orthographic development by implementing activities that encourage letter name and sound recognition and formation.
  • Enhance children’s vocabulary and comprehension by using strategies to build background knowledge and understanding of text structures as well as using questioning techniques while reading.
