This study looks at the development of critical literacy for three pre-service teacher participants, relevant support systems, and pedagogies. It considers how pre-service teacher participants construct knowledge on critical literacy within the methods course. The participants started with their own literacy histories in order to began developing internalization and critical consciousness within the methods and field experience course. Throughout the course, the participants took social action by using some of the critical literacy approaches that were presented as instructional strategies in the methods course. However, the participants were still internalizing two essential components of critical pedagogy in their own teaching: problem posing and dialogue. They acknowledged the value of problem posing and dialogue in their own learning but had some difficulty using these methods in their own teaching. The implications from this study suggest that teacher educators and future teachers take a stance on critical education and push for structural changes in common teaching practices and school curriculum mandates.

The class will read a required fifth-grade book, The Watsons Go to Birmingham-1963. 32This chapter book, full of amusing figurative language and southern dialect, will entertain and confuse some of the students because of its unusual language style. Students will focus the discussion on chapter fourteen called, "Every Bird and Bug in Birmingham Stops and Wonders." In this chapter, the narrator, a ten-year-old African American boy calmly describes the appearances of the two bodies of the little black girls who were blown-up in Little Rock. Ironically, he uses patriotic colors to describe their dresses: red, white, and blue, like the American flag. This is a poignant contrast to the pointless crime that just happened, that wasn't patriotic.It was inhuman. The students will learn that the hatred of southern whites caused them to bomb the church and killed four little black girls. The Southern Whites who killed those children were protesting against integration. 32
Objective: Take out your Social Studies text booklet to page 89. Read quietly, the standard in the upper left hand corner. What does institutionalization mean? It denotes the process of making something a social role, as an established custom within the system. English-Learners will need scaffolding of this concept. Explain to them that people are not animals and should not be treated like them. People have rights to certain Freedom that slaves are not allowed to have because their slave-masters bully them and force them to do things. They want them to stay slaves. This is institutionalization of a people.
