Review Of ' The Unit For Bridge ' And ' Movie '

Also within the school is a very diverse group of children with around fifty-seven percent of students identifying as white, nineteen percent identifying as black or African American, and seventeen percent identifying as Hispanic or Latino.

This learning activity has the students looking more deeply into their chosen book using a more critical mind rather than just enjoying the book for its basic story line. It has them taking note of what is happening at each stage of the book and why these events are taking place, then taking this information they have gathered and developing a written report to convey their thoughts and ideas in the book along with developing the skills necessary to produce a piece of writing that is easy to read and understand for the reader. This activity also has a lot of hidden features to the task, such as using the correct grammar, development of sentence structure and use of creative thinking to make the piece interesting to the reader.

For this unit, I completed 2 independent reading books: The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. These 2 books are completely different. The Lord of the Rings was a more challenging book because there was more description and harder words, where the Harry Potter book was an easier read because it’s a book I’ve read before. On my HSPE reading assessment I got 100 percent. I could read the questions and find that answer with several examples from the text. When I analyzed texts I would read each paragraph and summarize it and then at the end put all the summary paragraphs together to summarize the whole story. My target for this unit was to create (sic – find) a theme from my book and use evidence and I could go back into my

1. READING OUTCOME: COMPREHENSION PROCESS WORK: Demonstrate your understanding of the novel by answering the following questions in your journal. Where possible support your ideas with references from the text. Include page numbers for future use.

The purpose of this assignment is to give you an opportunity to apply some of the critical reading strategies you have evaluated.

The setting is Washington Elementary School in West Orange, NJ. The grade I picked is first grade. The age group in the class is between the ages of five and seven. The subjects they learn are math, language arts, social studies, and writing. But they focus more on reading and math throughout the day. There are 8 girls and 8 boys in the classroom which makes 16 students in total. The class is divided into three racial and ethnic groups which are Latino or Hispanic, African Americans, and Asian American. There are about 1 Asian American, 6 Latino or Hispanic, and 9 African Americans.

            2) Before even reading Chapter 2 I already knew about movie reading. I remember doing these types of assignments for history. At the end of the year our history teacher would allow us to watch a few movies if they were connected to history and we had to fill out a “follow along” sheet. In my class, I would still do this process just do it more complex. I would have parts where we would pause to fill out thought-provoking questions, vocabulary, and fill in the blank to make sure the students are following along. The problem I do see though is some teachers put too many question on the paper, and the students would fall behind or be too worried about the questions then pay attention to the movie.

The strategies I did in order to fully prepare myself for this task is read through the theme and the plot for the book and watch the movie understanding what is the story line in the movie. Discussing with my friends about is there any movie can compare with the book. At the beginning, I’m really interested about For today I am a boy this book because this story is different than the other book that I read before. After read the book I thought I can compare the book with similar movie which talking about the boy wants to be a girl or girls wants to be a boy this kind of movie after that my friend recommend the movie Karate Kid which is totally different story line movie. But when I comparing the two main characters, they both have similar points. So I start writing down the similar points and go back to watch the movie and read the book again for finding more details and points. During the conference, my theme and three points was not make any sense. Mr. Tran discuss with me and makes the new theme and new three points.

For this section make a statement about what you read which includes some background information from the novel with page number. Next, you’ll explain what your reaction regarding this statement is. This is the part that includes your feelings and ideas. Finally, you will make connections - how you relate the material or how it may lead you to another idea or experience. Include the word count at the end of your paragraph.

When focusing in on the specific classroom that I am working in, there is a 1-23 teacher to student ratio, with fourteen boys and nine girls that are all considered general education students. The class consists of 15 students being Hispanic, 4 students being Asian/Middle Easter, 2 African American

In my opinion, the reason for this assignment is for the teacher to see where we are in our reading, and writing. Reading to me must happen when I am interested in something for example, a movie because I enjoy reading about the plots but everyone is different. Another example is a graphic novel, because you can understand the concept or plot a lot easier than you would do in a regular novel. In regular books, you have so many things going on and you aren’t able to understand what is happening then you end up getting the wrong idea. Writing is just about the same for example, I can’t write about something that I know nothing about or interested in. Therefore, I am writing this paper to show you my weaknesses and not my strengths because I

I hope you had a great weekend! I wanted to go ahead and send you the reading assignments for the final two Lit Lab dates of Year 1, Days 6 & 7. In this session, we will look closely at these comprehension strategies: Schematic Connections, Questioning, Visualizing, and Inferring. You will need to bring and be familiar with the book, "Strategies that Work" by Harvey Goudvis. Also, please save your copy of Appendix Four which was given to you last week. We will use this again.

The diverse population encompassing our schools today are vast. The demographics of our nation are ever changing. Our individual states are having their dynamics altered as migration happens and change becomes the norm. Our counties and cities are evolving as well. Everywhere we look change is happening. We can see this by looking around, however we can justify our thoughts and feelings of change by looking at the cencus and changes in numbers within different populations.
