CCSS for Visual Literacy

For visual literacy, I couldn't find a specific page or section of the Common Core State Standards website that talked about the requirements for visual literacy learning, but I did find some sections that pertained to students' knowledge in visual literacy. First of all, on the "How to Read the Standards" page in the "Reading: Text Complexity and the Growth of Comprehension" section, they talk about making connections between ideas and text, being able to understand a wide range of texts,  and steadily growing in the complexity of the texts they read and understand. This could pertain to visual literacy in that students need to be able to use ideas and connections to read illustrations and graphics, and they need to be able to comprehend all different types of literature. Also on the "How to Read the Standards" page in the "Language: Conventions, effective use, and vocabulary" section, they talk about approaching language as a craft that can be expressed in many ways, which would require that the students are well versed in visual literacy and can understand it as if it were a part of the English language.

It made me realize how many resources there are out there for any issue that you may have as a teacher and also just how important it is to keep those books and resources handy while training to teach and throughout my teaching career in general. The content portfolio project was beneficial for the same reason; that I hadn’t done anything like it in any other class. To reflect on past work is extremely important, and it is really important to practice as future teachers because constant reflection is what helps teachers improve (as you have taught us).  In readings and discussions, I found it most beneficial that we explored all of the Washing State standards and reflected on them, especially since w...

Content Portfolio Project Proposal

For my Content Portfolio Project, I am going to make a Prezi of some of the materials that I presented on this quarter. I will also add some things I've done in other classes here at Eastern that have helped me to prepare to be an English Language Arts teacher. I will also include some common core standards and how I plan to fulfill them. I will probably use some materials from high school or books that I have read or teaching techniques that made me want to proceed with this career path. I'll organize it in different categories on Prezi.
