Teaching Literacy
Teaching literacy involves equipping individuals with the skills to read, write, and understand language effectively. It includes teaching phonics (the relationship between sounds and letters), vocabulary, comprehension strategies, and writing techniques. The goal is to foster the ability to interpret various texts, communicate ideas clearly, and think critically about information. Effective literacy instruction adapts to learners' needs, providing supportive, engaging learning experiences that build confidence and competence. Overall, it aims to unlock access to knowledge, ideas, and opportunities essential for personal and professional growth.
