Literacy
Literacy can be
integrated with every other content area, which makes it easy to use
throughout the course of a school day. Reading, writing,
listening, and/or speaking can be incorporated into science (i.e.
recording data), into social studies (i.e. telling a story, writing a
letter, or reading a book about a social studies topic), and into
mathematics (i.e. writing numbers, speaking to others, or listening to
multiple ways of solving a problem). It is a great way to meet
many standards in one lesson. Students approach literacy in many
different ways, so it is imperative for teachers to know their students
and meet each child's individual needs.
