Candidates have knowledge of and ability to apply major theories of reading and writing instruction.
The artifact I have selected to demonstrate my understanding of this descriptor is the final Prezi project from Practicum II. This project contains evidence of my ability to implement elements of balanced literacy, Reader/Writer Workshop, technology-based instruction, and basal readers. In the videos of Baron reading, each of these books came from a guided reading lesson from a basal series. The Prezi explains various aspects of balanced literacy we were working on. In addition, there is a video of him working on a piece from Writing Workshop during our persuasive unit. In the context of his persuasive piece about appropriate hallway behavior, we are working on the alphabetic and phonetic principle.
Madison's work was centered around her final project--a character analysis in an app called Bookpress on the ipad. This exemplifies my ability to incorporate student use of technology as a means of expression for student work. In addition, the vocabulary building activities we did are a part of balanced literacy.
