Phonemic awareness, language acquisition, and emergent reading and writing through the science of reading, with Tier 1 MTSS core instruction and learners with dyslexia named in the catalog text. The bachelor's programs carry the identical name as D669, so the code on your plan decides. Coursework Ninja completes D676 done-for-you, fixed quote in writing first. From $99. Independent of WGU.
Per WGU's published description, D676 is a specialized course designed for nurturing literacy skills in young children: an in-depth exploration of the foundational concepts and practices essential for promoting literacy development in early childhood through the science of reading, emphasizing the critical development in grades PK to third grade. The curriculum covers phonemic awareness, language acquisition, and emergent reading and writing skills, and incorporates the latest research in early childhood literacy.
Two M.A. Teaching tables carry D676. The elementary education track stacks it in term 3 with D677, D675, and D696, the four-course literacy term. The special education track places it in term 4 beside D677. The description's practical core: creating stimulating and inclusive literacy environments, using developmentally appropriate materials, and engaging high-quality core instruction inside Tier 1 multi-tiered systems of support and assessment (MTSS), suited to the various needs of young learners, learners with dyslexia named. The bachelor's programs carry the same name as D669 (EDUC 2251, 3 CUs) with the identical printed description, so the code on your program plan decides. We quote a flat price in writing once we know where you stand.
Every full package includes the written 6-month guarantee: we finish the remaining CUs under the agreed plan, or you do not pay. Packages: Bachelor's $3,000 · Master's $3,500 · both $5,500 · single assessments from $99.
Coverage
WGU does not publish assessment formats in the catalog. Student communities report performance assessment tasks (PAs) for the graduate literacy methods courses, consistent with the course type. We confirm the current format for your catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment D676 carries.
The description's stated emphasis: the critical development in grades PK to third grade. Phonemic awareness, language acquisition, and emergent reading and writing are the content core, and scored work stays inside that band rather than drifting into upper-elementary comprehension.
The description asks candidates to create stimulating and inclusive literacy environments with developmentally appropriate materials. The rubric reads environment claims as instructional choices: what the child does with the material, not how the corner looks.
Named in the description: high-quality core instruction as part of Tier 1 multi-tiered systems of support and assessment, suited to the various needs of young learners, including learners with dyslexia. Tasks score whether Tier 1 means strong universal instruction, not a waiting room for intervention.
The description commits the course to the latest research in early childhood literacy and the science of reading, with a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application. Scored work names current research and shows the classroom move it justifies.
D676 alone is a single from $99. On a remaining list in either M.A. Teaching table it folds into the flat master's package at $3,500, every remaining academic CU under the written 6-month finish guarantee.
