I read it, but I don't get it
I really enjoyed the book "I read it,but I don't get it" The book dealt with so many situations about students and their struggles to read that I applied in my own classroom.However, I did find that a lot of the information was kind of common sense if a practicing teacher has been in the classroom longest than one full day, I do believe that students have built into them, from years of schooling, basic fundamental reading skills, and those need to be taught to fit the grade level that the students are in. This is one of the many things in the book that I knew, but in the past I have failed to teach. The best part of the book for me were the tips on how to re teach these fundamental tips for the students. No matter what class a student is in, math, science, history, English...they will have o read and re read problems or texts. If a teacher uses the tips provided in this book on how to re -teach them, the teacher is not only helping them in English, but they are also helping them in virtually every subject in school and preparing them for life outside as school and in the real world. I think it is very important to teach students hoe to critically read texts, not just read it and not comprehend what is going on in the text. I plan to teach this in my classroom every chance I get and at every grade level that I teach at With these tips, I feel that I am now ready to do this. It will benefit myself as a teacher and the student in every class, every grade level, and, most importantly, when they enter the real world when their education career is over. Overall, I really enjoyed this book. If teachers take it seriously, it offers some very, very helpful tips for every teacher at every grade level. I would highly suggest that all future teachers are required to read this book before they are allowed to enter into their own classrooms..
