VIP Global Leadership Program by AJ Hoge - Effortless English Club

I want you to feel confident when you speak English. So right now, in fact, you need to put your shoulders back and I want to see a smile on your face and I want your chest to be up and I want you to breathe deeply. Remember, we have to change our body that’s the first step. It’s not the only thing, but it’s the first step to getting more confidence.
 
 
When our chin is up, our shoulders are back, chest is up, we’re smiling we have more of a feeling of confidence, of strength and relaxation. So be sure to do that every time you listen to English, speak English, and watch my videos always, very, very, very important.
 
So that’s the first step.
 
 
Now you’re going to learn confidence, you’re going to get, you know, new English of course from these lessons, but also we’re going to learn leadership. Every single month I’m going to send you audio commentaries and a little video about the topic of leadership. And sometimes I’ll use that movie technique, I’ll pause and explain..

The Reading Crisis Why Poor Children Fall Behind by Jeanne S Chall - Vicki A Jacobs and Luke E Baldwin

How severe is the literacy gap in our schools? Why does the nine-year-old child from a culturally disadvantaged background so often fall victim to the fourth-grade slump?
 
 
Although the cognitive abilities of these "children at risk" may be consistent with the norm, their literacy development lags far behind that of other children. In The Reading Crisis, the renowned reading specialist Jeanne Chall and her colleagues examine the causes of this disparity and suggest some remedies.
 
 
 
Using Chall's widely applied model of reading development, the authors examine the strengths and weaknesses in the reading, writing, and language development of children from low-income families in an attempt to identify the onset of their difficulties.
 
 
They show how, in the transition from learning the medium to understanding the message, the demands on children's reading skills become significantly more complex. The crucial point is fourth grade, when students confront texts containing unfamiliar words and ideas that are beyond the range of their own experience.
 
 
According to Chall's findings, the lack of specific literacy skills--not cognitive factors--explains the deceleration in the reading and writing development of low-income children. The authors outline an active role for the schools in remedying weaknesses in literacy development, and give suggestions for the home and the community. Their recommendations address both practical issues in instruction and the teacher-student dynamic that fosters literacy development.
