Integrating the Language Arts Through Literature and Thematic Units is the first textbook to reflect language arts instruction today! Through proven methodology, well-known authors Betty Roe and Elinor Ross harnesses the changes that have occurred in language arts instruction by integrating literature into thematic units to reflect current thinking in the field, by adapting instruction for ELL and special needs learners to reflect the population of today's classrooms, by aligning with IRA/NCTE standards to reflect the movement towards national assessment and teacher accountability, by emphasizing personal reflection to encourage students to make thoughtful choices about effective teaching, and by providing a separate chapter on media literacy to reflect the need for teachers to make instructionally sound choices about the use of media.
"Written for teacher candidates in all major fields of study and beginning teachers with limited classroom experience, this comprehensive handbook presents practical theory-based applications for a full range of teaching concerns that student teachers and practicum students have-from preparing to teach to the integration of instructional technology in the classroom. By effectively using vignettes, case studies, and activities, this text truly prepares students for teaching elementary and secondary level students. Designed for busy student teachers, the text has been reorganized to follow a logical framework filled with examples and resources teachers need in order to prepare for classrooms of their own, covers information needed during actual teaching and concludes with vital information for a person about to enter the teaching profession."--Publisher.
"This primer is a concise, yet thorough, guide to word recognition skills and vocabulary developement."--Page 1
