Technology has become an essential piece of the learning environment. Everyone learns differently, and technology plays an important role in assisting all types of learners. Technology can be used to motivate and engage students through interactive reading programs. Technology can connect reading instruction to the real world, promote collaboration, and expose students to rigorous reading materials and higher-level vocabulary.

Select a grade level K-4 and create six literacy centers that apply theoretical, historical, and evidence-based concepts of reading development, writing development, and components of language.

Create one center for each of the five elements of reading (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension) plus one for writing. Your centers should be developmentally appropriate and engaging for the selected grade level and at least one center must use digital tools .

Include the following in the description for each center:

• Standard and objective appropriate for the selected grade level
• Developmentally appropriate instructions for how to use the center
• Differentiation for students below and above grade level
• An assessment that provides evidence of learning

Below the description of each center, write a 150 word reflection on how you applied theoretical, historical, and evidence-based concepts of reading development, writing development, or components of language to literacy instruction.  

Support your reflection with at least 2-3 scholarly resources.
