Week 2 reading eBook Error
I have been directing my school musical and I had my final
performance last night. We did excerpts from "The WIZ" it went very
well. Last night after the production I came home to do my post I was going to
read and watch sports center on mute. Well I went to look for my book and it was
on my Adobe bookshelf. Weird, because I thought I downloaded it when I got
the email. Well I went back to the email to download it and I got the error
above. I contacted their tec support and I am waiting for them to resend the
link for a download. Apparently they had problems with a lot of their last
eBook shipment. I have heard that this book is a good read so I am
looking forward to catching up on my weekly reading.
My comments:
Bryan, I’m so sorry that you were not able to read the
reading for this week. I had the same
problem till I contacted the company and had them email me a new link to
download my book. It was frustrating,
but when I started reading the book, it was worth it. You are going to love reading this book. It’s not your typical educational book that
will give you simple tips. This book
will inspire you. It’s full of stories
that will warm your heart and motivate you to keep on going. As teachers we often need books like this to
give us a boost. Here’s a summary from
the first 4 chapters:
What an incredible book!
Every chapter deals with the truth that if applied to one’s life it can
make a difference. I started thinking
about my own life and how there has been things personally that I’ve invented
or followed. Things that have hold me back from moving forward or at least
reaching the next level. I have probably
questioned my potential do to the “inventions” of our society. At my local church, I have the privilege to
talk to a group of young adults about life and life in general. How we can improve and make the best of it in
faith. I’ve preached the message of pursuing life to its highest
potential. I have talked about the
endless possibilities that are out there available to anyone who stretches out
their hands. I’ve been mentioning this
in our meetings and I find it incredible how this book makes so much sense. I agree with the idea that the universe has
endless possibilities, but not only that; the world is actually waiting for
people to reach their potential, take risks, set goals, etc. I’ve already started working on how I can use
the concept of giving an A at the beginning of every semester or even every
week at school. It would be interesting
to experiment with this idea and see where it takes my classroom. I agree with the statement that a grade does
not tell the full story. Grades are
important for data, but sometimes students only focus on the number rather than
the product. The testimony of the
Taiwanese student summarized the first four chapters. One word, powerful.
