My last discussion for this class was to take the two chapters we were to read and infuse your own “art” into what you learned and what you understood. This chapter was on Approaches to Reading…….
Literacy is,
Has been,
And will always be,
The tool that develops,
Defines,
And Redefines,
US,
As Individuals,
Based On Our Ability,
To Think,
To Comprehend,
And to Speak.
Reading Requires Knowledge
Skills
And Temperaments
That not only affirm our student’s
Right to
Think,
Comprehend
And SPEAK,
But ALSO
ANNOUNCES TO THE SCHOOL,
THEIR TEACHERS,
THEIR FAMILIES,
And their NEW World .
That they are confident,
ABLE,
And Willing
To take literature
Passages,
And TEXTBOOKS
And CONSCIOUSLY
Deduce them down
To the very facts
AND FIGURES
That they represent
On a LEVEL
Students Understand
and teachers Can
Comprehend!
As a NATION BUILDER
Our approach to reading Instruction
Can
AND WILL
Differ.
Whether your approach is
Literature BASED
Marinated in BASAL
Or Simply Spoken
THROUGH
Language Experience
Our Goals
REMAIN
ONE AND THE SAME.
To continue to Educate
CHALLENGE
AND Inspire!
