Reading Literacy Objective
My example for the Reading Literacy objective is reading the novel, Invisible Man. Throughout the journey of reading Invisible Man we’ve done pre-reading, reading, and post-reading activities and applied strategies from all three activities to other assignments. The second bullet of the reading literacy objective states “To apply pre-reading, during reading, and post-reading strategies to all reading assignments, including determining purpose and pre-reading vocabulary.” Before reading Invisible Man we read a multitude of different works of literature to better understand the time period in which the book had taken place. We also took notes during our reading and discussed our findings with the class as a whole. After reading, we completed

    In the reading, The Sponsors of Literacy by Deborah Brandt she talks about how literacy was received and withheld from people because of socio-economic classes. Brandt claims that there is a connection between literacy and economic development or as she refers to them as sponsors of literacy which can either help, sensor, or withhold all together the ability to be literate. Literacy provides an upward mobility or at least the means to move upward in social classes and without literacy there is no means to gain an edge. In her interviews of Raymond Branch (European American) and Dora Lopez (Mexican American) Brandt found that even though both were born in the same year and had moved to the same town when they were younger Branch was introduced…

    Some characteristics to look for in a reading approach are engaging strategies for low, middle, and high achieving students that provide meaningful experiences and develop literacy skills. Some activities that can be used to increase students’ reading skills is repeated readings, concepts of print, comprehension strategies like predicting and asking questions, and building vocabulary by creating word walls. These activities can be implemented in small groups or partnered work and as a whole group.…

    Academic Literacy - paper

    • 3948 Words
    • 16 Pages

    The format of this source was in the style of a newspaper article which had clear bold headlines, but not a large enough size to attract your attention although the headlines did highlight the purpose of the article. The font was used continuously throughout the article and kept at a similar size. The audience was mainly aimed towards the public, with an informal tone used as no jargon was used and also no terminology used in order to make it harder to understand, therefore simpler language was used, which best fit the tone used with the audience it was aimed at. With the argument of the author being about the cuts being made in the sexual health services such as Family Planning (FPA) and Brook, the argument clearly stresses the concern at the higher statistics of young people with catching Sexual Transmitted Infections and pregnancy. The Article only contained one image which promoted contraception, showing what kind of services are offered in both Brook and FPA. The language used was in a sense of concern and anxiety with words like “vulnerable” (Williams, 2012) being used, which suggests that concern is being raised. With the lack of statistics and facts used I was not as convinced as I could have been , having said that the articles use of language made it easier to understand so the language used best fit the audience intended. The argument was convincing as it did make me realize the importance of the sexual health services, but as said before, if facts and statistics were included the argument would have been enhanced into an excellent argument.…

    11-12th Grade Literacy

    • 372 Words
    • 2 Pages

    I hope to one day teach secondary education, with an endorsement in English. Ideally, I want to teach high school juniors and seniors. For that reason, on this assignment I decided to focus on the common core standards of juniors and seniors. One of the themes that I noticed when reading through the standards for 11-12th grade literacy is that many of them focused on the students ability to analyze and think critically. It challenges students to not only interpret the text, but also to infer from it. An example of that is standard one, “ Cite strongly and through to textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text…” (CCTS,2016). Students are asked to not only understand what a…

    My Literacy Journey

    Growing up in a bilingual household has affected my literacy journey. It affected my Spanish writing because I focused more on English. This course has helped me look at English literacy beyond the point of it being another credit to simply cross off my list. A specific reading from this course that I was able to really retain and relate to was Victor Villanueva's excerpt from Bootstraps: From an Academic of Color. Here he brought up several points that made me think differently about literacy and how it can affect my life now or even after college. “One professor said my writing was too formulaic. One professor said it was to novel. Another wrote: ‘nonsense.’ “ (Villanueva 112) I really like this quote because relating it back to literacy and my college experience ahead of me, it makes me understand that there will be times…

    To start my family is the most important when it comes to my literacy development. Ever since I can remember, my mom would always read me bedtime stories like Goldilock and the Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, The Little Gingerbread Man, and until I fell asleep. When I got older she would push me to read books that peaked my interest. One book that comes to mind that is an a-ha moment is a graphic novel called “Bone” by Jeff Smith. I really enjoyed the humorous comics and how they describe everything in great detail. The chase scenes couldn't make me put the book down. It was the first book that I remember reading the most, including the rest of the series. I would get in trouble sometimes because I would use it in many book projects over the years!…

    In Arabic language, which is my native language and the language that I learned first, there are two main influences that affected me. The first influence was my mother. She was the first person who took me to the bookstore to buy books. I remember that when I was five years old, I could not read fluently. She encouraged me to read some basic words, by saying “Now it is the time that you read by yourself and after a few more months you will read the story before sleeping all by yourself”. At that time, this was kind of a shock and a huge obstacle for me. I told her, “I am not in the elementary school yet, so how can I read”. Then she said, “All of your siblings learned how to read well before they went to school, and now it is your turn”. I…

    Literacy Assessment

    I used formative assessments on a daily basis to determine my planning of literacy instruction each week. My school used “Word Wall Words” which are words that students should know at each grade level. I tested my class on five “word wall words” each week. I gave specific spelling instruction to students to help them learn these sight words. I also developed reading comprehension and content area literacy by having students read a book about weather and answer different leveled questions. I promoted student independent reading each day by having students read silently for 30 minutes. The students are also required to read 120 minutes on their own each week and track it in a log and get it signed by their…

    Have American teenagers lost moral values such as truth, hard work and honesty? That’s what statistics seem to indicate. According to a national poll of more than 20.000 middle school and high school students, sponsored by the Josephson Institute of Ethics, nearly half of all high schoolers are thieves. 47% of students admitted they stole something from a store in the past twelve months, and more than one in four said they have committed theft at least twice. The theft rate represents an 8% jump from the 1996 poll.…
