EDRD 3500 -70 and 71 -KEY ASSIGNMENT
Literacy Dictionary
Description: Learning reading vocabulary is important for all teachers. This assignment enables students to track unfamiliar words as they read, link these words to their background knowledge, create understanding for their words, and develop a final project that displays their new vocabulary.
Task: Each student will develop and maintain a Literacy Dictionary in a word document. Reading terminology/strategies will be assigned each week. Students will define (in own words) and illustrate or provide examples, and/or explain steps (if describing a strategy) of each term, concept, or strategy. Students will compile terms into "flipbook" as directed by the instructor of the course.
The Literacy Dictionary will contain over 100 terms.
