3. Teaching (What will you do?)]
As an educator, I will want my students to do a weekly reading log. They will pick a book of their
choice to learn how to read before they take their book home to read with friends or family I will
make sure they are able to fully read the first page without help. I want my students to challenge
themselves and take home a book they will fully understand and read fully by the end of the week
with no help. At the end of the week instead of quizzing my students, I want them to tell me what
they learn in the book for instance by giving me a brief summary of the story. I will also take part
in this challenge and read a book of my student’s choice.
4. Closure:
At the end of the weekly lesson, I want my students to take share a photo with whom they share

the book of their choice it does not have to be necessary to be a parent, sibling, or friend it can also be an

object like Mr. Teddy. I want my students to feel like they accomplished a goal they did not expect to

achieve. I will assure to my students I will take part of this challenge and observe who needs helps

understand the English language.
