ELED 265 - Children’s Literature for Early Childhood Educators


Semester Hours: 3
Once a Year
This course considers children’s literature for young children and its role in both early literacy development and the early childhood classroom, including classrooms with diverse, English language learners, and special- needs children. The focus is on the development of reflective practitioners who can respond critically to research and political trends in literacy education that may engender good teaching. The relationships between literature and children’s development as readers, writers, and thinkers within a cultural context, including issues of social justice. Classroom contexts, the use of technology, the role of play, and social interaction around children’s literature are studied.
