What makes a Good Reader?

       The question as a student is that am i a good reader. For me the definition of a good reader is when you can read at a speed in which you comprehend what you are redaing. that means that you may have to check over what you just read. so by that definition i think of myself as a good reader.
     I would tell you that for what i am doing reading will be very important. and i will encourage my students to find something that they like to read and do it.  I think that to learn to read you need to encourage students and show them that there is not a facet of life where reading isn't important.we would go over menus, internet sites and store diagram.

Post 3 games

     I think that games in the classroom are an intracal part of what you do as a teacher.  It is the easiest way to learn for some and the memorable part of the class.  for me being a kines major this is where you teach the life lessons, like losing gracefully and learning form the loss. For me the games and sports i played as a youth i can track my life lessons to the games i played as a kid.

What is the connection between your literacy and culture?  for me it was signifigant in how i veiwed my literacy. I was a poor kid who kind on knew but didn't realize it.  the people i knew where a little quirky and outkast/nerds. i hung around the athletes and country type folk. so none of us really were big into the reading, but because of all the thing that went on in my life i started to write some poetry and became very interested by it. so now cause of the technology at hand it is easier for me toget my stuff out.
