The client provided appropriate background knowledge during the shared reading. For example, the client informed the clinician about aftershocks after reading about an earthquake in the book. In addition, the client is stating appropriate comments during shared reading. For example, the client stated “Oh no!” when the main characters experienced an earthquake. In addition, the client answered majority of the clinician’s prediction questions correctly. In regards to writing, the client and clinician continued to co-construct a cookbook.

Characteristics of the Beginning Conventional Stage and the Writing Expansion Stage observed in the client’s writing this week are documented in Appendix D and E respectively. The client began organizing his recipes with a beginning, middle, and …show more content…
This decrease could be attributed to familiarity with the conversation partner. Additionally, the conversation partner allowed the client more time to formulate his response. One of the instances of delayed response could be attributed to the client attending to a worker outside cutting the grass during the session. In regards to reading, the client increased most of the meaning-based strategies this week compared to last week. The increase use of meaning-based strategies could be due to the client’s increasing comprehension and interest in the book. The client appears to have an increased awareness in recognizing when to read “like the character”. The client’s increased comprehension of the novel could be attributed to the client’s increase in attention and taking the characters prospective. Regarding writing, the client demonstrated the same features of Ruptic’s Beginning Conventional Stage. The client is consistently displaying every feature of the Beginning Conventional Stage. The client also is beginning to write his recipes with a beginning, middle, and end. This could be attributed to the client understanding that recipes should follow a certain

In ” Decisions and Revisions: The Planning Strategies of a Publishing Writer,” Carol Berkenkotter describes a “lab” that she performed on Donald M. Murray to better understand how professional writer’s revise their work; in “Response of a Laboratory Rat–or, Being Protocoled,” Murray discusses not only how he felt about being a “lab rat”, but also what he took away from the experience.
The disciplinary perspective Lamott is catering to most is creative writing and writings that have strict time limits. The authors discipline is creative writing when it comes to food reviews for her magazine company. Lamott believes that her situation can be used with all forms of disciplines. In addition to Lamott’s discipline, Baker’s writing perspective comes from a teaching or informative discipline. Baker is trying to help teachers learn effective teaching skills when it comes to writing. However, Johnsons discipline is strictly for psychology disciplines and how they can improve papers and grades all together. On the other hand, Makenzie’s discipline is in the study of biology and wants to explain why writing is important in that field of study.
What goes through your mind when you read? Do you read deliberately, looking for certain aspects, or do you read as a blank slate? When reading, professors expect a deliberateness that will help you to uncover meanings that are not readily apparent. Thomas C. Foster in his book “How to Read Literature Like a Professor” expands on this concept. He endeavors to instruct his readers in the way he believes they should read, in order to get the most out of each book. He concedes that, “When lay readers encounter a fictive text, they focus, as they should, on the story and the characters” but to truly read like a professor you must also divert a portion of your attention on

When we are communicating verbally with a client we have to remain polite, calm and focused, this is so messages don’t get misinterpreted and the progress of the conversation will be successful.
A. It is important to observe an indviduals reactions when communicating to gauge how people are feeling in the situation. Some people may have barriers when it comes to communicating such as personal space issues. It is imperitive to make the client feel as comfortable as possible when communicating, if the person looks to be feeling uncomfortable with how you are communicating they may not be taking in the information you are giving them putting them at potential risk or if it is the client that is giving the information they may be holding something back again putting them at risk.
Use comprehension strategies to build literal and inferred meaning and begin to evaluate texts by drawing on a growing knowledge of context, text structures and language features
This improved communication skill, from my perspective, is an essential and necessary benchmark for the establishment of an effective client/practitioner relationship. O’Keefe (2008) urges us to listen to the narrative, there’s a story to be heard, if only we adjust our philosophical positioning.
Before I started this unit, reading was difficult for me when I had to track the characters in my book. To solve these problems, I tried to use the following strategies in this unit “Tracking Character's, Signature Strengths and Noticing Characters.” These strategies were extremely helpful as I read my book. Next time I read, I will use and deeply work on the same strategies because they are useful, they show developement in my character, and help with writing reading responses. Before I started this unit, tracking characters were very difficult for me, but by using some useful strategies I was able to better understand my characters.
Lamott compares the process of writing with the painful process of pulling the teeth. She believes that in order to produce a high quality writing, the author must first put together all their ideas and thoughts in form of the “child draft”. This draft determines the flow and dimension

People spend a significant part of their lives listening and talking, that is the main reason why conversation is regarded to be the most generalised form of talk that concerns both speakers and listeners and it is contemplated to be the essential ingredient in co-operative undertaking (Wardhaugh, 1985). Conversation is informal talk involving two or more people and interviews are a particular type of conversation. Interviews are regarded as meetings at which a journalist asks questions in order to find out the interviewee’s opinion. This is an assignment that analyses a telephone interview, so there is an absence of eye contact, body language or facial expressions that are attributes of a ‘live’
