Oh The Places You Ll Go Reflection
Reading is an essential component in life triggering creativity and imagination. Reading is my escape from reality. With the help of an English to Vietnamese dictionary, I was able to read my first English book called “Oh! The Places You’ll Go!” written by Dr. Seuss. The message in this children book along with the process in learning how to read this book became the stimuli for me to pursue my aspirations, and to overcome the challenges in my path.

    Richard Rodriguez Thesis

    “Didn’t i realize that reading would open up whole new worlds? A book could open doors for me. It could introduce me to people and show me places I never imagined existed. She gestured towards the bookshelves . (Bare-breasted African women danced, and the shiny hubcaps of automobiles on the back covers of the geographic gleamed in my mind.) I listened with respect. But her words were not very influential. I was thinking then of another consequence of literacy, one i was too shy to admit but nonetheless trusted. Books were going to make me “educated.” That confidence enabled me, several months later, to over come my fear of the silence.…

    Personal Narrative: Roll Of Thunder, Hear My Cry

    While most kids had the enjoyment of having their parents read to them at night, close to their parents and slowly drifting off to sleep, I never had that experience. My parents didn’t teach me to speak English, let alone read it to me. So, while I was growing up it was a struggle for me to have the thrill of traveling in a magical school bus, saying Goodnight to the moon or even ignoring the man with the yellow hat. I wasn’t so deep into books, I never knew they could take you out of reality and let you escape your mind while you go on an adventure.…

    Garrison Keillor Book Report

    “A book is a gift you can open again and again,” wrote Garrison Keillor. People read all the time. They read for information, for escape, for entertainment, for instruction, for guidance. They read recipes and tweets and texts. They read newspapers, blogs, and Facebook replies. In a recent survey by Pew Research, the number of people who actually read a book in the past year was 72 percent in 2015. I am one of those. As I consider my reading experiences, I realize they represent the journey I have traveled, leading me to my current academic path.…

    Richard Rodriguez And Eudora Welty: A Personal Analysis

    Reading is an experience that every individual grows from differently. Whether it be a smooth transition or even a positive one depends entirely on the individual. Gerald Graff, Richard Rodriguez, and Eudora Welty all show their growth through literacy narratives. Each one of their experiences although different all relate to my own journey into literacy. My own transition from Dr. Seuss books, to being thoroughly interested in novels such as Kiss the Girls by James Patterson is a novel all on its own.…

    Reflective Reflection

    Reflection allows an individual to identify the reasons or purpose of understanding the outcome of a particular situation in depth in term of emotions on thought and feeling on the topic area. In addition, Reflection is something that we do implicitly as part of being human, underpinning our identities through a process of negotiation between our sense of self and our experiences of others (Demetriou, 2000, p.210). Therefore, I have implemented this quote in my professional and personal goals I wanted and have achieved thought-out the process of the module.

    Maurice Sendak's Where The Wild Things Are

    Reading has taught me how to expand my imagination and how to live freely. More importantly, being able to read has given me self-knowledge and confidence. Being literate has given me the ability to research new information, and has helped me to overcome the fear of public speaking. Nevertheless, each day my literacy is developing, and the more I read daily, the more I educate myself. However, many books like “Life of Pi” or “The Hobbit” has helped me to escape from my natural life. Even though the process to become literate was challenging; with the help of my teachers, parents, and practicing daily, I can now interpret sources and enjoy reading the writings of famous…

    How To Read Literature

    Thinking back to the summer when I first signed up for this class, I thought I would just be spending a semester reading my favorite childhood books to learn about the process of constructing a children’s book. I never would have thought that I would learn so much about how to analyze literature and choose books that would develop the cultural understanding of a child. Also, I didn’t realize how much I would have learned about my own experiences reading books. Everything I learned from this class I hope that I can apply to my everyday life.…

    Children's Book Essay

    Reading is unavoidable. Everyone has something of their own interests to read. Seeing, perceiving, and recognizing lines and dots as a form of language is a process that is extremely complicated yet necessary. It is recognized that children vary greatly in both reading ability and level of interest in a topic, and that they do not like reading a book said to be for a younger age group. But just because a book is meant for children does not indicate an adult may not read it. Adults learn differently, for them, learning must be meaningful; they can still accept the ability to learn from reading children’s books. By reading children’s books, it can help them relive the imagination we once had as children, and demonstrate a better connection to classical literature. All this can be experienced through the reading of C.O.W. Boys: Stolen on the river.…

    There was a time, without any screens, when reading was a popular leisure activity. People would spend hours reading and travelling to distant, exotic lands -in their minds, with only a leather bound book. But somewhere along the road, the passion to read is lost. And that’s just sad because reading offers a completely new life.…
