in thinking. Although there is general agreement that thinking and reasoning are automatically and quite naturally used within any complex cognitive process such as reading, writing, or vocabulary development, there is also agreement that with instruction in specific strategies, one can learn to think and reason more effectively.” Marzano, R. J., & Mid-Continent Regional Educational Lab., A. C. (1991). During this literacy model the students will be saying the nursery rhyme. “Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush”. As the teacher, will ask the students to say the rhyme with me two or three times. Once the students are comfortable saying the rhyme, I will have them join hands and move in a circle around a table or object that can be thought

  • Critical Thinking? You Need Knowledge By Diane Ravitch: Article Analysis

    In this time, most teachers’ brains have been numbed from all of the talk about the thinking process and abstract thinking skills (Ravitch). Students need a lot of knowledge to be able to think critically as they are expected to (Ravitch). We stand on the shoulders of those before us, we did not restart as each generation comes up in the world as we wish it would (Ravitch). What we need to be learning is how to use our brain’s capacity to make generalizations so we can see past our own experiences

    Learning how to think in this way takes time and failure. This idea is what happens in school. A student is being taught how to think through lectures and a letter grade system, which tells the student if he or she needs to improve in a certain area. In this way students improve in knowing how to think. However, this is not all that goes into the idea of learning how to think.

  • Analyzing a School Literacy Program

    866 Words  | 2 Pages

    For this assignment, I completed a survey to assess my school’s literacy program by using a survey that was adapted from by Patty, Maschoff, & Ransom (1996) to analyze the instructional program and the school’s infrastructure. To be able to answer my survey, I needed to go colleagues of mine in the English Department and to my administration to help with these questions. Being a math teacher, we hardly ever discuss the literacy and the students’ acquisition of it in our department meeting during staff development days. Since I am not truly current with literacy acquisition in education, I am hoping to understand more from this process so I can help all my students. I want them to be able to read texts related to math and find information that will be useful to them during the year.

  • The Changing Definition of Literacy in Australia

    1317 Words  | 3 Pages

    Literacy is the act of conveying, analysing and understanding messages to make meaning of interactions. Therefore, literacy can be defined as a multifaceted, continually evolving multimodal process using numerous semiotic systems for communication purposes. A literate individual is required to make sense of information received in order to articulate or express an appropriate response; although, literacy strengths will vary depending on the context or social situation. In an increasingly multicultural and technologically "savvy" classroom, the teaching and learning of multiliteracies is of particular importance as it ensures students gain the skills needed to successfully communicate in a modern world. Therefore, it is necessary for literacy to be described as multimodal, which includes the use of aural, gestural, linguistic, spatial, and visual modes with a purpose to send and receive information. The term multimodal also incorporates the use of art, digita...

  • Literacy Debate By Motoko Rich

    In the New York Times article “Literacy Debate: Online, R U Really Reading?”, the author, Motoko Rich, brings up a series of points, many of which seem to be making the argument that reading online is not as good as reading from a physical book. I disagree with Rich. I believe that the article, written in 2008, is now somewhat outdated. The internet has developed to be one of the best resources for information. Whether you want to read about the characters in a novel, study scholarly articles for your upcoming midterms, or read about what’s happening in your favorite celebrity’s life, the internet will have it. In high school, I was given an assignment in which we were to write a 5 page research paper on a topic we felt strongly about, and

  • Literacy Narrative

    Throughout my childhood, the idea of having a college education was greatly stressed. As a result, it was my duty as the next generational child, to excel in my studies and achieve a life of prosperity and success. Learning became the basic foundation of my growth. Therefore, my youth was overtaken by many hours spent reading and writing what was known to be correct "Standard" English. I first found this to be a great shortcoming, but as I grew older, I began to realize the many rewards acquired by having the ability to be literate.

    The students are given picture cards and told to match the words that have the same end rhyme. This is a great way for a teacher to monitor the students’ thinking. The group setting is a safe way for students to explore what they have learned. After the teacher feels the students have mastered the material, students will be grouped and assigned a sentence to memorize in the poem Hey Diddle Diddle. The students will create a play that goes along with the story. Students will dress up as the rhyming words in the story. Memorizing the lines in the play would be a way for students to practice fluency, as well as become phonemically

  • Analysis Of Dr. Nosich's Learning To Think Things Through

    Dr. Gerald M. Nosich, an expert in critical thinking, wrote a book titled, “Learning to Think Things Through,” for his readers to understand and enhance their analytical skills. In the book, Nosich discussed the eight elements of reasoning including two additional elements: Purpose, Question at Issue, Assumptions, Implications and Consequences, Information, Concepts, Conclusions/Interpretation, Point of View, and Alternatives and Context (two additional elements). These elements help sort through our reasoning process so that we can make reasonable decisions. As a kid, I did not fully understand nor used any critical thinking skills, which led me to make some unreasonable mistakes.

  • Reflection Essay: The Intricate Journey Of Literacy

    1955 Words  | 4 Pages

    Literacy is a very intriguing topic; it seems simple yet it is so vast and complex that it takes some people their whole lives to understand it. If I say the phrase ‘Discourse Community’ most people in a random selection from the population would just stare at me waiting for me to finish my sentence, as they would not understand the gravity of the phrase. A discourse community is a group with similar interests that uses communication and other devices together to expand their knowledge of a subject and accomplish goals. Readers from a young age do not understand the fact that they are contributing to their community before they even know of its existence. By communicating to their teacher that they are having issues with a certain area and that this type of learning helped them to understand it, their teacher can then reiterate to the community what the issue was and how it was resolved so that

  • Phonological Approach

    311 Words  | 1 Pages

    Whole-language instruction intertwines all areas of reading and writing to teach literacy. This approach follows the idea that children develop literacy by listening and observing language all around them, as well as using language in meaningful ways. A strength of this approach is that the topics that are taught are taught organically, and in context. Children are viewing how experts use language, and will begin to mimic this language. A weakness of this approach is that some students may not be able to pick up on important features of language without breaking it down into steps.

    A comprehensive approach to literacy instruction is when reading and writing are integrated. This happens by connecting reading, writing, comprehension, and good children’s literature. A comprehensive approach to literacy should focus on the many different aspects of reading and writing in order to improve literacy instruction. This includes teachers supporting a comprehensive literacy instructional program by providing developmentally appropriate activities for children. Comprehensive literacy approaches incorporate meaning based skills for children by providing them with the environment needed for literacy experiences. This includes having a print rich classroom where children are exposed to charts, schedules, play related print, and
