I chose the standard LAFS.910. L.3.4 from grades 9-10. The
standard's purpose is for students to know the meaning of a word or phrase
based off of context clues. This is an essential standard because we often see
words we may not be familiar with therefore students should know how to use
context clues to have an idea to what the words may mean. I do feel that I am
able to implement this task as I’ve done it often by making myself familiar
with sentence structures as well as context clues.
The Instructional Resources tool in the English section of
grades 9-12 is one I would use in my own classroom. Being that this is a time
that students can be preparing for the next level of education knowing how to
write an essay can take them a long way. Not just knowing how to write an essay
but knowing the elements and exactly what specific writing techniques spice up your
writing. The tool has various resources that would teach students the do's and don’ts
of writing a good paper.
It is important to be a proficient internet searcher, so you
know exactly how to find relevant information of your desired topic. We've all
tried to search something on the internet and was presented with information we
found to be irrelevant. Knowing exactly how to word the searches will benefit
in researching. The skill I will use in the future will be the advance search
tool to eliminate the possibility of getting irrelevant information, like the
example used in the article "spears, but not Britney."
Hey Jamauri! I really like the information you presented in your blog, and totally agree that context clues is a really important skill to be taught in the classroom :)
