Texas Science Textbook Analysis

“What happens in Texas doesn’t stay in Texas when it comes to textbooks,” said Dan Quinn, who worked as an editor of social studies textbooks before joining the Texas Freedom Network, which was founded by Governor Ann Richards’s daughter, Cecile, to counter the religious right.

This is beneficial to the English learner so that they can learn the key elements of the chapter without having to read the long and often difficult text. They are engaged in reading, writing, listening, and speaking during this task.

When you or somebody listen to the word Texas their is 100% you or the fellow will say the Alamo or Cowboys, every person is more likely to remember the Alamo fight or the, civil war, but if you go way back what was Texas before, what started Texas, And how did it end to where is at in my concern Texas did not start one day and the next day was strong and one the most important state of the U.S, every person forgets that Texas stander up by their agriculture and also with their cattle ranch and Texas still remains as one of the states that has a strong agriculture.

*This activity is to be completed by students that have read the book;however, the activity can incorporate the entire class, even if not all students were required to read the book. It is up to the instructor how he/she wants to present the activity and the requirements they include.

The feedback I provided students on the nonfiction texts feature assessment addressed each individual needs and strengths relative to the standard being measured because it provided students with written exclamation on how well they performed on the assessment then I discussed the areas they had specific difficulty with, which included following through of the directions needed to complete the assessment to earn full credit. For example one student gave an answer but did not include the name of the text feature used to locate the information needed to answer the questions. I provided feedback for the students to look at the underlying sentences in the direction because she had forgotten to include the text feature and some her answers were not

Have you thought about if you have actually utilized your textbook this semester in ENG 100? Well, I feel as if I have utilized my textbook throughout ENG 100 this semester. Some of my classmates might disagree, but when completing assignments it was very useful. A textbook is a book used as a standard work for the study of a particular subject. In this essay, I will discuss how students utilized their ENG 100 textbook, was it easy to follow, and what the benefits of using it were.

Leah, I too found it to be an eye opener regarding the statement listed in Task #2 (When we say students can’t read, what does that mean?). The text states: “95% of the textbooks that districts buy and publishers get lots of money for are written at least 2 grade levels above the grade level it is written for. So, unless the teacher modifies the reading and provides other resources, the student is always asked to read something at her/his frustrational level.” I cannot believe that we are actually doing something like this, expecting students to learn not one grade level higher but two! I think that the majority of students nowadays is more advanced than we were back in the day. This is due to technology. As a Childcare provider, I have seen children from 1- to 5-years-old playing with and/on cellphone devices, tablets, laptops, and computers. This is very surprising to me! As a result, I think that this has helped children to learn at a faster pace. I feel that where the school system once lacked the ability to address these students educational needs, due to lack of advanced technology; they have now come up with a way to catch up to where these students are by providing textbooks that are written at least 2 grade levels above their actual grade level. Looking at this text from both sides, I would say that this could be both a good and bad thing. We are talking about a textbook! In today’s society, students are more likely to read a book using a computer rather than

A section of the Chapter 8 that was meaningful to me were the sections describing group contingencies and the Good Behavior Game. My students can be very competitive. I feel the Good Behavior Game would be highly motivating to them. The safeguards listed were also very helpful to avoid resentment or the students blaming others. I have learned that if I use “language loopholes”, my students are more likely to buy into a variety of tasks, such as turning homework in or staying on task. Additionally, the variation of the “Hero Procedure” would also be beneficial to my classroom. It would give my students the opportunities to be successful in the eyes of their peers.

When I was made aware that the Nelson textbook was required for this class I remember thinking “great, another $70 dollar textbook I’ll probably never use”. In lieu, of purchasing the textbook, I decided to rent it, and now that is a decision I am actually regretting. The Nelson textbook is unlike any text that I have purchased in the past because the information provided is indeed useful. Every chapter I read, I learn something I did not know, I get an idea, or I get a template/format I can use in the future. Never would I have thought that I would be excited about purchasing a textbook, but this one is definitely worth having in my professional collection.

SNHU 107 textbook offered so many Learning opportunities that it is hard to choose strategies. However, I have learned about using my learning style to help me retain the material more thoroughly and easier. The textbook also taught me what I need to work on. Like my math and typing skills. I will use a typing program called Learn Touch Typing on Keybr.com. This program will help me improve my typing. Now for my math, I will use a website called Khan Academy. This should help me strengthen my math skills.

Being in the United States Army, we have many technical documents in which we use on a daily basis. In the field of Electronics Technician we refer to publications called technical manuals. There is a class on how to read these technical manuals and how to navigate through them in order to find the information needed. However, it is not a requirement to take the class in order to read and understand these manuals. Through certain vocabulary, sentence structures and sentence lengths we can make these manuals easier to read and understand.

For me personally, I did not find the Vizi textbook very useful; however, I believe this is largely due to my learning preference and style. It is difficult for me to comprehend what we were working through as a class without actually clicking through and exploring it myself. I disliked going through the textbook as a whole-class because it did not allow individuals much control over the pace. Also, I found it difficult to keep focused. Therefore, in the future, I would suggest abandoning one of the textbooks and spend the majority of the time working through one of them.

The book was also really helpful in clarifying the terms and applications we studied in the classroom. Since I took a 8-week class, we could only cover so much and this book helped me to know how the data are just not some numbers, they represent the part of a

Looking back, and reflecting on the course there was a lot of readings that I found helpful. I felt that not all of the readings were necessary for the class, but I did feel they could be useful for the field. I felt maybe that some of the readings were dissonant. I think that doing side reading is important and I also feel like you need to do extra reading to get a good idea as to what is being portrayed, but I felt like some of the reading had me more confused than when I started, asking myself, “Why am I reading this?, and how is this pertaining to the homework assignment?” The textbook was a tool that I found extremely useful, not just for the class but for my future knowledge in the field. Between the reading and the research, I did on my own helped me a great deal to understand and get through the class.
