This course is mandatory for students taking the
Associate of Arts Degree in Primary Education and the Certificate in Primary
Education. The course introduces students to the teaching of language and
literacy to children from birth to eight years.
Students acquire knowledge of how young children use the skills and
components of language. Students explore
and begin to apply teaching strategies that will enable young children to
develop these skills and components. They explore strategies for modifying
instruction to meet the needs of children from diverse social, cultural,
economic and linguistic backgrounds and with varying levels of ability.
