【Course Objectives】

This course looks at how picturebooks can be used as teaching tools for learners of all ages and fluency levels. However, it isn’t just for pre-service teachers. Anyone who loves reading will enjoy this class. Picturebooks combine words and images to support language, cultural, emotional, and visual learning. In this course, students will practice strategies such as read-alouds, think-alouds, and image-based activities to engage different kinds of learners. They will also design pre-, during-, and post-reading tasks that build understanding step by step. The course will also consider how picturebooks can support people who are not strong readers. Finally, students will discuss how picturebooks show themes of culture, race, gender, sexuality, trauma, and healing, and put everything together through lesson planning, teaching demonstrations, and reflection.

【Course Contents】

Participants will learn about picturebook characteristics and the work of authors and illustrators, as well as plan and carry out two picturebook read-alouds in class using the pre-reading, during-reading, and post-reading framework. This framework supports the development of learners’ language and cognitive skills through discussion, drawing, writing, and craft activities.
By the end of this class, students will have:
(i) Understood the value of interactive picturebook read-alouds in developing a range of skills.
(ii) Practiced strategies to encourage active participation and engagement during read-aloud sessions.
(iii) Planned, carried out, and reflected on two interactive picturebook read-alouds (30 minutes each) using the pre-, during-, and post-reading framework.
(iv) Taken part in class discussions around picturebooks and the themes they raise.
(v) Written a final report (1,500 words) on a picturebook or theme discussed in class.
