This 45-credit program leads to Literacy Certification (birth to grade 6). This program sequence is especially designed for individuals who are recent recipients of initial or provisional certification in Childhood Education or Early Childhood Education and who are seeking a master's degree in Literacy. This program is right for you if you are hoping to gain a deeper understanding of the reading and writing process, and to recognize when children are having difficulty with the normal process of learning to read and write.

Course work and field experience will give you the opportunity to develop a knowledge base for working with native English speakers, English language learners, and children with special needs from a broad range of cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. Particular emphasis is placed on helping you understand the links between assessment and instruction, develop a wide repertoire of teaching strategies, and learn to address the academic, intellectual and emotional strengths and needs of children in your classroom.

The program views reading, writing, and language development as integrated processes. Course work and field experiences are designed to help you to work both independently and collaboratively with other teachers, parents, and other professionals to meet the needs of diverse learners.
