The standard of focus that I am concentrating on this semester is literacy. Currently, I am teaching ESL to middle school children. They need a lot of help in reading and writing and as their teacher I want to give them the tools that they need to become successful readers and writers. I can link visual learning with digital imagery and inspiration to this standard by having students learn new vocabulary words and the steps to persuasive writing through concept mapping. In addition, digital imagery can be used as an excerise to create pictures that match their vocabulary words.

  1. Literacy is a pretty broad topic, but if you focus on a particular kind of literacy (you even mentioned visual learning, which is related to its own kind of literacy) I think you will find lots of ideas for connecting to the content of this course.
