ELED 224 - Multicultural Literature in the Curriculum


Semester Hours: 3
Fall, Spring
This course examines the social contexts of language use and identity in relation to the use of children’s literature and literature based software in the integrated curriculum. Assignments and readings enable students to develop criteria for selecting and using culturally authentic literature from diverse perspectives in the language arts and content areas. Students are involved in the process of reading and writing about children’s books in content areas through journals, drama, and electronic bulletin board discussions. Curricular materials and activities that meet New York state and national standards and that utilize multiple genres of literature, including bilingual tests and texts in nonstandard dialect, are designed for urban elementary classrooms.
