Rethinking literacy pedagogy for twenty-first century classrooms requires understanding the complexity of practices that draw on reading and writing events and behaviours and how these have changed. New technologies have extended print-based literacy and children are now using literacy in ways that requires teachers to understand and be knowledgeable about a range of literacy behaviours and practices. Effective teachers of literacy will read and enjoy quality literature with pupils, create opportunities for pupils to experience and become skilled as readers and writers across a range of genres and text types, be conversant with using technology in the classroom and make available opportunities for children to use literacy authentically. Effective teachers of literacy provide opportunities for students to work independently and collaboratively, encourage students to inquire and ask questions, and create a classroom that accommodates a diversity of perspectives.
