Reading reflection (unit 3 of MAR)
Tier one :( Unit 3 of MAR)
The first part of tier, tier 1 of unit 3 of MAR, was very easy to read and understand its main ideas while the second part is little-bit challenging. It has many unfamiliar words and long and complicated sentences and paragraphs. Since, overcome these challenges and to grasp the author’s main ideas, I allocated more time for making annotations and rereading those points.
I have used the following reading strategies.
Strategies used:
Before reading
 Plan for the reading: Preparing reading material such dictionary and note paper and allocating appropriate time for reading,
 The purpose for reading established: to get information and to strength my reading skills.
 Preview the

Things to do differently next time:
Nothing new will be used next time since the above strategies have worked best for me so far.
Tier three:
Tier 3 of unit 3 of MAR, is a research article about scalability and evolutionary of air transportation networks in USA. The text was easy for me to read and develope a clear idea of the text. In addition, Most of the terminologies used in this writing were not strange to me at all. Again, in this tier, I have used the same strategies I used earlier (strategies mentioned above). The only thing I did differently was that, since the article is a research article, I have read the abstract, that introduction and the conclusion chapter before I read the whole text.
Why I used the above strategies?
Again, all of the strategies I used during my reading were successful without any exception because the text was easy to understand.
Doing exercise after reading:
I went through the tasks given at the end of the tier and most of them were easy and a breeze. Consequently, I encountered almost no problem with all types of the exercises.
Things to do differently next time:
Nothing new will be used next time since the above strategies have worked best for me so

    The thing I improved the most on this week was learning how to play Chrononauts. At first we were put into groups to play this game and my team sat on the wings of the tables. For about the first 15 minutes I had no idea what this game was or how to play it. After I saw the other team's play after a few turns I started get what this game was about, but still I had many questions about what each card does or in what ways you could win. The second game we played my team was put in the center of the tables.…

    Dr. Coontz discussed the many myths and realities of marriage, as well as the ways marriage has changed over time in her lecture “The Way We Never Were: American Families and the Nostalgia Trap.” She touched on topics such as: single parent families, step families, divorce, the stability of marriage, as well as the separate spheres for men and women.

Hope you find this useful in your days as a farmer in Harvest Moon Friends in Mineral Town!…

    My approach to reading has changed over the semester. Before this class, I would just read without taking notes. In reading, I would just read instead of looking up the difficult word or using context clues to figure out what the word means. Now during my reading I annotate and look up unknown vocabulary words. When I look up the difficult word, I would find the closest appropriate definition.…
