K-4LiteracyCurriculumStatement
The K-4 ELA Curriculum Team of New Ulm Public Schools believes literacy education
should guarantee the development of college and career ready students in reading,
writing, speaking, viewing, listening, media literacy and language. To accomplish this
goal, teachers will employ a balanced literacy model which includes direct instruction,
guided instruction, and independent learning. This model will include read aloud, word
study, shared reading and writing, guided reading and writing, and independent reading
and writing. Literacy instruction will include explicit and systematic instruction in
phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
