Week Two Reflection Guided Reading 101 Reading
Reading and school achievement at home. They have traveled a lot, and bring rich background experiences to school. As part of my job, I pull out small groups of students in grades 1-3 who are reading below grade level. I work with them several times a week for 20 minute guided reading sessions in addition to their classroom instruction. Since guided reading is a rather difficult and complicated process I usually leave substitutes with lessons and activities that can be taught to the whole class.

Organizing and organizations- “One person can start an organized effort but change that affects more than one person requires the involvement of more than one person” (Homan, 48). When people come together for a common purpose, they can usually achieve what they came together for. When Camy and the people who stayed behind in their neighborhood, found out they were about to lose their homes, they all joined together against the university. They all stuck together, they keep track of things, they even exposed the university to the media. They used several different tactics to get the attention of the university.
Action- “People will act for change only if they are uncomfortable enough with the current circumstances or excited enough by a new possibility” (Homan, 49). Camy and the people in his neighborhood were being forced out of their homes. This was an uncomfortable circumstance. They all acted together as one to save their homes. In my opinion they all came together because they felt they had a chance at winning. Forming the alliance against the university was one action they took, bringing out details about the university to the media and political leaders was another action.

Motivation Starts With Passion This was my spark. What started off as a terrible event, actually gave me the opportunity to meet all these amazing people, and develop an intense passion for discovering more about them and their countries. And so I started. Difference between passion and motivation. Passion is one of the reason behind motivation. From another perspective, Motivation is the Desire or willingness to do something; enthusiasm. Motivation is Internal and external factors that stimulate desire and energy in people to be continually interested and committed to a job, role or subject, or to make an effort to attain a goal.
