  • Comprehension Builders Research Reveals That the Single Most Valuable Activity for Developing Students’ Com- Prehension Is Reading Itself
    Daily Comprehension Builders Research reveals that the single most valuable activity for developing students’ com- prehension is reading itself. At its core, comprehension is an active process in which students think about text and gain meaning from it. In order for them to build compe- tence in comprehension, their reading should be purposeful and reflective. It should foster the exploration of genre, language, and information. Daily Comprehension Build- ers is a resource that provides the instructional framework to help your students build strength in comprehension and achieve success in reading! Comprehension Basics Comprehension begins with what a student knows about a topic. It builds as a child reads and actively makes connections between new information and prior knowledge. Understanding is increased as the student organizes what he has read in relationship to what he already knows. To successfully comprehend, students need to master a variety of critical skills, such as constructing word meanings from context, determin- ing main ideas and locating details to support them, sequencing, inferring and drawing conclusions, making generalizations, predicting, summarizing, and sensing an author’s purpose. Daily Comprehension Builders provides multiple opportunities for reinforcing these essential skills, resulting in increased learning and competence in reading. About This Book Thirty-six high-interest reading selections, each accompanied by five activities and two to three reproducible skill sheets, are featured in this book. (See the unit features detailed below.) Each unit is clearly organized and highlights one of the following topics or genres: sports, famous people, animals, oddities, real-life mysteries, and adventure. Use each unit in its entirety, or pick and choose activities to build specific skills.

  • NBA Great Bill Walton Inspires at La Sierra Scholarship Gala,Made To
    By Darla Martin Tucker NBA Hall of Famer Bill Walton speaks with former journalist and sports commentator Jeff Fellenzer, emcee for the 2019 Frank Jobe Memorial Gala. Ethan Davis, a graduate of Escondido Adventist Academy, had often heard of NBA Hall of Famer Bill Walton while growing up in Walton’s hometown of San Diego. On Oct. 23, Davis got the chance to meet Walton and learn from him. Davis, a La Sierra University Health and Exercise Science major and forward on the Golden Eagles basketball team, was among university student-athletes who attended La Sierra’s 2019 Frank Jobe Memorial Gala at the Riverside Convention Center in Riverside, Calif. Walton, noted as one of the NBA’s 50 greatest players of all time, served as keynote speaker. The gala is named in memoriam for famed sports orthopedic surgeon and La Sierra alum Frank Jobe and serves as a Printed: September 2021 - Page 1 of 14 Article reprint from Adventistfaith.com on September 2021 2021© Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Copyright, All Right Reserved. fundraiser for athletics scholarships. The first Frank Jobe gala was held in 2017 and featured Major League Baseball pitcher Tommy John, on whom Jobe performed the first ever ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction surgery in 1974—a groundbreaking procedure that has saved the careers of many athletes. John also attended this year’s gala. Walton’s career includes leading the UCLA Bruins under renowned Coach John Wooden to two NCAA championships, an NBA Most Valuable Player award, two NBA championships with the Portland Trail Blazers and the Boston Celtics, and induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

  • My Drift Title: Bill Walton Written By: Jerry D
    My Drift Title: Bill Walton Written by: Jerry D. Petersen Date: 15 Apr 2017 Article Number: 255-2017-11 John Wooden (The Wizard of Westwood) tells a story about how he handled a rebellious player named Bill Walton insistent upon breaking his rules on personal appearance. Walton told me I didn’t have the right to make him get a haircut and to shave off his full beard. I said, “No, I don’t, Bill. I just have the right to determine who is going to play — and we’re going to miss you.” Walton got a haircut and shave that same day. Bill Walton tells of another problem he caused for Coach Wooden. One of the saddest days for Coach Wooden was the day he came down and had to bail me out of jail after I got arrested in the anti-Vietnam protest. He said, “Bill, I know you feel very strongly about this, but I just don't think that you getting arrested and taking part in this demonstration is what it's all about." "Coach Wooden has a heart, brain and soul that have enabled him to inspire others to reach levels of success and peace of mind that they might never have dreamed possible on their own." "When I left UCLA in 1974 and became the highest-paid player in the history of team sports at that time, the quality of my life went down. That's how special it was to have played for John Wooden and UCLA." —Bill Walton '74, UCLA Magazine (March 2007) Bill Walton gives lessons on life and John Wooden in speech at Berkeley.
