Preface: Introduction and Overview of the Open Textbook -- Chapter 1: Word Recognition and the Simple View of Reading -- Chapter 2: Language Comprehension and the Simple View of Reading -- Chapter 3: Recounts and Narratives in the Middle School -- Chapter 4: Integrating a Language-Based Approach to Content Instruction into Civics Lessons -- Chapter 5: A Functional Approach to STEAM: Teaching to Argue about Sound -- Chapter 6: Developing Critical Thinking and Language Skills through Project-based Learning and the Knowledge Framework -- Chapter 7: Alternative Frameworks for Incorporation of Generative AI Usage as a Functional Approach to Language Development -- Chapter 8: Unleashing the Power of Multilingual Minds: Translanguaging for Deeper Learning
Subject: Content Area Literacy courses have long been a requirement in teacher education programs for pre-service teachers for the secondary level and, sometimes, for the elementary level. The 2020 World-class Instructional Design and Assessment (WIDA) Framework takes a genre approach that aligns well with the traditional Content Area Literacy courses in teacher preparation programs. WIDA argues for an educational approach that fosters (a) equity of opportunity and access, (b) integration of content and language, (c) collaboration among stakeholders, and (d) a functional approach to language development. This textbook examines the elements that make up the Simple View of Reading with adjustments made for the increasing Multilingual student population. Then, the text focuses on the Key Uses of Language (KLUs) developed by WIDA with examples of how these are employed in different Content Areas. The final chapters focus on the unique needs and benefits of Multilingual students within U.S. classrooms.
