Abstract This article addresses the considerations on what they term digitally supported elementary disciplinary literacy in elementary grade (K–5) instruction. In doing so, the authors focus on the particularities of elementary instruction and what disciplinary literacy might look like in those grade levels, with a particular emphasis on digital tools and texts, to propose suggestions for teachers to more readily integrate disciplinary literacy in elementary school. Specifically, the authors consider that elementary disciplinary literacy instruction should emphasize four Core Disciplinary Practices (CDPs) that are applicable across elementary disciplinary instruction to build critical foundational skills applicable to disciplinary literacy, as well as ideas for the central role digital texts and tools can play in this instruction.
