Learning Reflection

 Dear, Teacher Usa Noitim.

      This blog is the last blog for this semester of the Discourse Approach in Reading. I surely tell you that I had a lot of skills and strategies for reading. It can help very much in the future about how to read, how to analyze, or how to use an appropriate word. So, this is what I got from this course.

What was I learning about A Discourse Approach in Reading course?
      As I told you about what I learn from the blog I had written, I had studied many lessons for this course.
      First, I learned “Recount” It helps me to know how to tell the stories, events, or series that what
happened. Second, I learned “Narrative”. For this lesson, it can help me better to understand the stories that I read for each paragraph and it can help me to read the book better that I can, It really useful. Third, I learned about “Descriptive”. The teacher taught me about how to describe things, person, place, or animal in English. Fourth, I studied “Procedure”. This lesson was told me how to do or how to make something, it was very interesting for me. Fifth, I learn about “Comparison and Contrast”. This lesson showed the pattern that presents similarities between two or more things, differences between two or more things. I made me known how to read things and analyze it about what is the difference in the texts. Sixth, I learned about “Cause and effect”. It made me know what the cause is and what an effect in the text is. Seventh, I learned about “Definition and classification”. This lesson helps me how to know the meaning of the technical term. Next, I learned about “Exemplification” that is adding the more information of the word and the last lesson that I learned was “Problem and Solution” that is a pattern of organization where information in a passage is expressed as a dilemma or concerning issue (a problem) and something that was, can be, or should be done to remedy this issue (solution or attempted solution). I think every lesson that I learn, it could help me very much in daily life or in the future because if you do not know how to read something or how to use the lesson that the teacher taught. We couldn’t read something as well as you could. So, if you try to practice every day or concentrate on learning about this lesson, you could read the text as well and you can improve yourself better that you are. That were I got in this class, “Discourse Approach in Reading course”
What did I find the easy things, while I was studying A Discourse Approach in Reading?
      I think I really like about the discourse marker because they can help me very much to understand about what type of the text is. I think I believe that this course can help me to think about something in common sense as well.

What did I find the difficult things, while I was studying A Discourse Approach in Reading?
      
      One thing that always disturbed me to learn about this course is “I don’t know many vocabularies as much”. It could make me confused sometimes when I found the difficult word in the passage.

How did I solve these problems?

      But I can solve this problem by searching that word from the online dictionary. Anyway, I should more be reading, more practicing, and more remembering the word because I think about my future to be a teacher or knowing something new. If I know many words, I could learn faster. I really believe it.

How do I bring the knowledge of this course to use in my daily life?

      As I told you about what I’d got in this course, I can bring the knowledge to use in my every daily life about in English or Thai because this course makes me how to know about common sense in reading or pronouncing the text. I can adapt the knowledge to the conversation to the foreigner. And I can write the text in English better than I was because I know about the discourse markers and connector words. It can help me very much.

What is my attitude toward this course?
      About my attitude for this course, I think that I really like this course because it can help me to improve my skill in English very much. I was worried about this course in the first class that I studied. But when I learn about this course and continued practice to read and analyze the text that in the handout of each lesson, I was rethinking about it and I have got much knowledge about this course very much. So, I have to say “Thank you so much teacher” for taught me a lot and do not be afraid to educate your students at all. This is may the last time that I have studied with you because I know about your retirement, this is so sad when I know about this for every time I had heard. But I surely believe that you will stay in my heart forever as the best teacher. I will keep everything about your teaching and use it for the future forever.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, TEACHER

Problem and Solution Continues

      On Monday 7th May, I continued learned about “Problem and Solution” from last week.
For this week, we studied little because the teacher assigned the homework from last week already. The teacher gave us the corrective feedback and also asked us our homework. Some friends didn’t do that homework yet so she told to that students to get out of the room to complete the homework and sentence explaining the main idea of the passage then create a problem and solution, graphic organizer.” The teacher was also told some friends to write the title, main idea, and graphic organizer on the whiteboard.
come bake to the class. Then, th
e teacher gave us the corrective feedback about exercise1. It was about “read each passage, write the title, and

      After that, the teacher continued gave us the corrective feedback about the exercise2. After that, the teacher told us for a break in 10 minutes and when we came in, we were going to watch many cooking videos from our friends.

      From my group, I had a group with Wirapat, we had cooked the Spicy chicken burrito with Stir-fried Chinese morning glory.

      On this week, I think I can learn this lesson so easily because I like to analyze the problem and find the solution. But I had found many difficult in the handout. So, I can solve this problem by searching that word from the dictionary and asking for my friends about the difficult words.

      Finally, I really like the class and enjoy with my friends and teacher very much.
