A Dedication

Alejandro S. Bernardo

And this poem of the heart now I write for you


To thank you for the memories we share through
You’re someone who touches my life that others can’t do
Rivers may die, run out of water and cease to flow

My love for you incessantly will grow


The tiniest that creep would even show
You are part of me, and that you must know.
You’ve painted my world with new and different hue.

Dreams that I dream, you have given flesh


In my saddest times, you offered caress
In my darkest moments you reminded me I am blessed
When I am at my lowest you scaled me to the crest

If ever you desire to go and leave


I will still treasure the time you and I weave
You may be far, farther than I conceive
You’ll always be remembered in the afterlife, believe.

Every drop of rain that the heaven rolls


Every bird in the morning that sweetly calls
Every living creature that joyfully crawls
Would remind me of you, winters and falls

Let the world finally see and hear


That you are loved and to me so near
Now that my heart and life’s end is clear
Thank you for coming, you are truly dear.

Model
Skills Required for proficient Reading

The National Reading Panel (2002) suggests that the ability to read requires proficiency in a number of
languages domains. These language domains included:

Phonemic Awareness  The ability to distinguish and manipulate


the individual sounds of language
Phonics  The understanding of how letters are linked
to sounds (phonemes), patterns of letter
sound correspondences and spelling
English, and how to apply this knowledge
when readers read
Fluency  The ability to read orally with speed,
accuracy, and vocal expression. Fluency is
important because it provides a bridge
between word recognition and
comprehension. Fluent readers do not have
to concentrate on decoding so they can
focus their efforts on making meaning of
the text
Vocabulary  The knowledge of words etymology,
structure, part of speech, and what they
mean; is a large category that includes
listening vocabulary, speaking vocabulary,
reading vocabulary, and writing vocabulary
can be learned indirectly (e.g., through
being read to, through conversation with
adults) or directly (e.g., through specific
word instruction or through strategies such
as breaking longer words down into
familiar parts)
Reading Comprehension  The complex cognitive process in which a
reader intentionally and interactively
engages with the text; the process of
making sense of what is being read.
