In this class, we are required to read the whole novel of Don Quixote de la Mancha in Spanish or English, if you prefer so. What is the secret of success? Using the higher-order thinking: Bloom’s Taxonomy when delving beyond the obvious during the process of reading nonfiction articles. I will provide information on Bloom’s Taxonomy—a way of thinking about your schoolwork that can change the way you study. Bloom’s Taxonomy is a framework that starts with two low levels of thinking as an...
Students will improve the skills of reading and writing as we read the classic novel Don Quijote de la Mancha by the Spanish author Miguel Cervantes Saavedra. Students will be able to apply reading strategies for remembering, analyzing, evaluating, and judging the many adventures the main character had as he traveled with his squire, Sancho Panza.
I hold a bachelor's degree in Philosophy from the World University of Puerto Rico where I enjoyed reading this classic, best-seller book and wrote reports showing comprehension of meaning, culture, and the Castillian language. I hold a master's degree in varying exceptionalities from the Central University of Orlando. My studies included strategies to make material comprehensible to students sensitive to certain subjects due to past experiences. As an ESOL (English Student of Other Language) teacher, I taught English, reading, social studies, world history, and USA history to special education students. I was assigned in the intensive reading class where I used Bloom's Taxonomy to help students increase their comprehension to grade level as measured by Florida's language arts standards. Seventy percent passed the end-of-the-year standardized reading test. All of the photos in my PowerPoint presentation are enriching, respectful, and safe. Students are expected to show maturity and due seriousness. However, there might be any sensitive information due to past experiences unaware to Mrs. Algarin. Parents might choose to sit sporadically to ensure a safe and productive learning environment conducive to learning.

I abide by the school ethics I worked with for fifteen years: values and principles that guide the behavior of people and organizations in relation to their responsibilities and decision making. I have made thorough research on these fiction novels. When studying sensitive themes, we will address the issues objectively and they will be used exclusively to apply Bloom's Taxonomy. The slides have been selected carefully with due admiration and respect for cultural differences. Diversity is beautiful, accepted, and encouraged. Nevertheless, there might be any sensitive information due to family values and past experiences unaware to Mrs. Algarin. Parents might choose to sit sporadically to ensure a safe and productive learning environment conducive to learning.
We will make constant reference to the fiction novel Don Quixote de la Mancha.
