How can content area teachers plan and design instruction so that students will actively engage in literacy- and subject-related activities?

1. Chapter 1, is about introducing the Tres Camarones, the state of Sinaloa, Mexico. Also, since the people in that town didn’t like change much there are already danger roaming around like the bandidos who will be evading the town.

1. Coming out of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, different views of federalism were carried: (1) Alexander Hamilton believed that the national government was the superior and leading force in political affairs, since the people created it and its laws were the “supreme law of the land;” (2) Thomas Jefferson believed that “the people” were the ultimate sovereigns, and since the states was a result of agreement among the states, the states were supreme over the national gov’t.

Chapter Nine goes into detail about the late Paleoindian Period the growth of agriculture in North and South America. Clovis points appeared all over the Americas attesting to a continent-wide networking. However, as time pasted distinctive points and tools began to pop up based on region and the needs it provided for. In fact, a common theme of this chapter was the Native Americans ability to exploit their resources and maximize their intake of food sources.

English learners (ELs) struggle with content literacy task because the “academic language of texts is not the language of conversational speech” Vacca et al. (2014, P.77). Every content area has a specific language. ELs find it difficult because they are not familiar with the academic language in that content area. For example, an English learner in first grade might have difficulties understanding his peers in a reading group excises because of the content language but, when they go outside to play, they communicate fluently because this English learner has mastered the playground language. Teachers can make content more accessible to students by using a variety of instructional strategies or aids to assist students with English language problems in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Interactive, cooperative activities, pictures, relevant media etc. are some of the shelter instructional strategies which teachers can use to make content accessible to students (p.82).

The statement applies an everyday situation to the reader and give the reader what to apply from the information they were given. Everyday situation was about giving the salesclerk your credit card. We never view a situation other ways until we process the information we were given. You had to think about someone who is reliable to use my credit card information. The author attacked us with a lot of information we might not have understood in order to carefully apply the word they uses to comprehend.

The New York Department of Health and Mental Hygiene adopted rules which aim to repeal and recode the current law, Chapter 23 of Title 24, of the rules of the New York City to specify sanitary inspection procedures in different food service establishments (Chapter 23 of Title 24 of the Rules of the City of New York, 2010). In July 2010, New York City Mayor Bloomberg lunched New York’s Restaurant letter Grading program (NYC Health, 2013). The New York City Health department started requiring restaurants in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island to post their letter grades that showing their sanitary inspection results to accomplish three goals: First, to inform the people about the restaurants’ inspection result that could

In chapter 1, M. Scott Peck is the author I found the most compelling in terms of his argument. I found Peck’s view the most compelling because thinking of reality like a map is something I never thought could make so much sense. Now thinking of reality as a map I can see I need to continuously revise how I value things in life based on new expectations, findings, and social values. For example, on the topic of gays and lesbians back in my Parents’ Day people thought that being gay or lesbian is a choice of life but with new scientific data, it could be something someone is born with. Therefore, there is a need to revise one’s map. In chapter 2, George E. Saint-Laurent is most in line with my current worldview because I also believe that religion

Chapter 18 talks about on how to reduce crime focusing on social, cultural, and community crime prevention, which it refers to primary prevention. I can see how primary prevention recognizes the main problem on violent street crime in our country, which is committed by young people living in poor neighborhoods and urban areas. In order to reduce crime in poor neighborhoods, we need to focus more on the main problems. For example family instability, reducing social and economic inequalities between men and women, and restore social bonds with the community and social institutions in order to end social disorganization. I can connect a patter with these examples on how they can have a big impact on our young teenagers in order to stop street

Many years ago, Athens, Greece, was viewed as a necessary part of any tour of Europe. Then the city developed an image of a smoggy city choked with traffic. During the _____ stage of its attempt to reposition Athens as a culture-filled destination for conventions, the Greek government realized package tour operators (a source of much of the tourist traffic in Greece) were unimpressed by the proposal to paint the facades of the buildings in Athens and to plant 100s of trees and bushes.

In chapter 10, Germany was receiving food from other countries. This is because the disagreements between some countries divided Germany. Joseph Stalin liked the idea of “collectivization.” As a result, many people died due to the lack of food. Mao Zedong did the same thing, and even more people died. Both of them wanted to promote communism, but they ended up killing millions of people. I thought this chapter had a lot of interesting facts like when it talked about Americans feeding the children in Berlin by flying and dropping candy into the area. I had no questions about the chapter.

In chapter 8 of Handbook of Emotions, The Evolutionary Psychology of the Emotions and Their Relationship to Internal Regulatory Variables, Tooby & Cosmides (2008) thoroughly discuss the theories of how emotions came to be. The overall conclusion is that emotions did not inadvertently occur, but instead were specifically designed and evolved to solve distinct issues that would affect the probability of fitness. Emotions evolved to utilize physical responses based on environmental cues in order to promote the individual’s overall success.

1. The description of Acts 7 paints a clear and accurate picture of what is being described inside Sanhedrin, the highest court in Jerusalem. Stephen had been arrested and brought before the court where the high priest asks Stephen if the charges of blasphemy an alleged attack against the law are true. Instead of defending himself, Stephen addresses the court with a formal charge against the Jews. In addition, Stephen delivers his sermon by chronologically walking the court through a geographical narrative starting with God's covenant with Abraham. Stephen reminded the Jewish leaders about Mesopotamia the origin of their ancestor Abraham and his journey with God. Abraham received instructions from God to leave his country and everyone behind

I wish I could tell you that Vitya Anderson and I fell in love and never looked back. I wish I could tell you that I wake up to her every morning with my face buried in her strawberry hair. I wish I could tell you I spent the rest of my life staring at the New Jersey girl who looked as beautiful as California. I wish I could tell you we had children together, running around our backyard with their scabby knees and lemonade hands. I wish I could tell you we took a yearly vacation to the Dominican and that she got drunk every year and made a beautiful fool of herself.
