This class was one of the most interesting and relevant classes I have taken at Montclair. I never thought about literacy as it related to other subject areas. As an English major i thought it only pertained to reading and writing in my subject area. The information I learned will help me bring in other subject area techniques in order to help reach the students who may not be so interested in literature in the conventional way. It also made me more sensitive to students learning disabilities or past experiences which may leave "learning baggage."
I want my students to succeed in all of their classes, not just mine so therefore I think its crucial to be understanding of the demands in all content areas.
