2.How could literacy link to your subject?

3.As a teacher, what are your own literacy areas for development?]]> 2018-06-20 16:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/267979973 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268370123 Literacy is the ability to read and write. This is a critical skill that can be started almost at birth with the learning of sounds and the meaning of speech. Literacy is woven throughout all our topics. As a teacher I am continually challenged to discover and use the latest technologies that serve as literary tools]]> 2018-06-24 23:35:10 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268370123 sjruiz93 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268638241 Literacy is the ability to read, write, create, and comprehend using some form of language. 
I do not teach - HOWEVER literacy is a part of every single subject. ]]> 2018-06-26 19:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268638241 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268668205 1. Literacy is the process of decoding texts by analyzing, synthesizing, comparing, contrasting, etc. 
2. Reading the directions, word problems, interpreting vocabulary such as 'evaluate', 'simplify', 'solve', determining relevant information and jargon.
3. I would like to develop strong critical literacy skills. I believe it is important to be aware of materials/resources I'm presenting to my students, and the intentions behind them.]]> 2018-06-27 01:20:25 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268668205 alexa_proffitt https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268795118 Literacy is everything and everything is literacy.]]> 2018-06-28 00:07:11 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268795118 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/268985718 Literacy is everywhere and everything. I'm an ELA teacher, but again, it's interweaved throughout any content and all materials and learning.

Literacy is the ability to read, write, listen, speak, think, analyze through a critical lens.  I believe in multicultural literacy, critical literacy is an important part of "literacy" in general.  Basically, critically analyzing any type of communication or media--verbal, non verbal, written or not, etc.

2. Not a teacher, but I taught ELA so the read, write, listen, speak is pretty embedded in there--unfortunately the critical and multicultural part is not a part of the TEKS.

3.  Not a teacher, but I think the trainings I do could better emphasize critical and multicultural literacy. ]]> 2018-06-29 22:54:03 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/269003976 felicia_rodriguez16 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/269200556 1. Literacy is the ability to read and write. Furthermore, literacy is the ability to take what you read and write and analyze it, engage with it, think about it, and talk about it. 
2. I don't teach yet but I think literacy is important regardless of what subject you teach. Of course, it would benefit most in an ELA or Reading class.
3. I am a Journalism major so I have literary skills but I know there is so much more I could learn and develop. ]]> 2018-07-02 22:58:56 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/269200556 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/269522813 Literacy, as learned from our reading assignments because I'm not a teacher, is critical thinking on past events relating tocurrent events in the context of higher order thinking and learning where the students perform content analysis, thoroughly consider their development of interpretations and lines of questioning, and evaluate peer responses in relation to the subject matter, all leading to higher order comprehension of the subject matter.]]> 2018-07-06 01:54:21 UTC https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/269522813 amyanderson262 https://padlet.com/uluvdani/Week2B/wish/270074404 1. The simplest way I define literacy is that literacy is the knowledge of being able to read and understand written text. 2. I teach all subjects. Literacy is crucial to any content area. 3. I would say I am constantly trying to find tools to use in my class that can help my students interpret their readings.
