Literacy, Language and Literature B | Federation University

EDBED3111 Literacy, Language and Literature B

This unit is designed to consolidate understandings of literacy, language, and literature learning in the middle and upper years of primary school. It focuses on research-based approaches to explicit teaching, modelling, and scaffolding practices, emphasizing how students continue to develop literacy knowledge and skills throughout their education. A strong emphasis is placed on delivering effective reading instruction through systematic and explicit teaching practices that target key elements such as phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and oral language. Additionally, the unit explores explicit instruction in reading and writing, across the curriculum. A wide range of children¿s literature, including multimodal texts, is explored to construct effective teaching programs aligned with current curriculum frameworks and 21st-century learning contexts.
