This course provides an overview of writing instruction drawing on research to inform instructional practice. Areas of emphasis include creating contexts for responsive writing instruction, disciplinary writing, reciprocal relationships among reading and writing, writing conventions, and engaging with families. In a practicum focused on small group writing instruction with learners in upper elementary grades, graduate students will confer with writers, examine instructional language choices, analyze how students develop as writers, and engage in communities of practice. Graduate students collaboratively teach a small group of children, analyze students' writing, and reflect on instructional practices drawing on theories of literacy development. Students in Literacy programs must receive a B or better in all practicum courses before taking ELTL 620, the capstone class.
