The Omnivorous Reader in Me

My Learning Styles Results Intra-personal/reflective - Like to work on my own - This has proven to be the best way I learn Linguistic - I enjoy reading, writing, and learning new words - Today’s word: hackneyed: A girl can only hear “I love you” so many times before it begins to sound hackneyed and meaningless ( Bodily/Physical - Naturally good at athletics - Exercise promotes my learning and well-rounded nature

Literacy Strengths & Weaknesses Strengths: - Consistent reader/writer - Connections - Inferences/predictions - Have opinions on good versus bad writing Weaknesses: - Fail to finish books that are too difficult to read, that don’t interest me, or that are written poorly (ie: 50 Shades of Grey). - Fail to follow up on some writing - Often skim through texts/instructions/news articles - Can be an “impatient” reader - Not very computer literate (as you may be able to tell!)

Book Choices Omnivorous Reader: - I read anything and everything (I am that annoying friend who likes to skim through every description on the wall at a museum/science center/art gallery) - Choose books based on recommendations and plot summaries - I try my best to stay away from “junk” novels and read something that will stimulate my brain - Articles mostly read from the newspaper/professor recommendations/based on subject - Prefer to read non-fiction books, but would not turn away a fiction novel if handed to me

Difficult Texts Difficult Text Strategies - Write character lists for detailed/complicated novels (Ken Follett novels for example) - Highlight and write down as much as possible in the margins of articles/informational texts - Try to infer or learn difficult vocabulary - Guilty of needing to find a strategy/desire to finish some difficult books that I have started

AHA! Struggling Reader - A struggling reader of mine had trouble differentiating/pronouncing “ed,” “ing,” and “es” endings Solution: - Underline/highlight all “ed,” “ing,” and “es” endings when reading - Use scrabble pieces to spell out words with these endings - Do exercises where student must pick the word with the correct ending - Ex: Samuel (walked/walking/walks) to the barn to feed the horses

My blog/website Thank-you for taking the time to get to know the reader in me! My most recent and exciting literary discovery has been the creation of my website where I actively blog and read/respond to student blogs:
