RDG 610 Language and Literacy Development in Early Childhood

This course examines issues, theories, processes and contexts involved in oral language and early literacy development.

Students will develop competencies in the components of emergent literacy, which include oral language development, phonological and phonemic awareness, the alphabetic principle, high frequency vocabulary development, decoding and spelling strategies, and fluency development.
