Course Review

As I look back to the beginning of the semester, I realize how much I gained and learnt from this course. First, I really enjoyed the video clips that provided a view of effective literacy instruction and classrooms. These teachers integrated various strategies and activities to build literacy and help all students learn how to read and write.

I have learnt various strategies to help teach English language learners. These are, a positive outlook, encouraging them to use their native language, connection to experience and background, multicultural literature, illustration and visuals, and journals. In addition, classroom libraries are essential in building literacy by providing a variety of texts available on different levels so that all students have opportunity to read.

Furthermore, I have learnt many comprehension strategies that I hope to teach my students in the future. For example, small group literature discussions, response logs, mini-lessons, and post-it strategy.

I have learnt and gained a great deal of knowledge of how to build literacy in all aspects, reading, comprehension, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and writing. I hope that all the knowledge and skills I learnt this semester will help me be the best teacher in an English language arts classroom. I truly aspire to meet the needs, abilities, and learning styles of all my students in the classroom and give them all an equal chance for success in literacy. Thanks for a great semester!
