Grades 4–6 can present unique challenges and opportunities for literacy learning. Education professionals evaluate research-based instructional and assessment practices to help actively engage students in further literacy growth and achieve literacy goals. In this course, educators focus on adding effective strategies to their professional library on supporting writing about texts, academic vocabulary, listening and speaking, and the use of technology for content-area reading. They consider how to incorporate different levels, types, and genres of text to support all students' learning and literacy development.
