Chapter 3 reflection

what I wanted to know from chapter 3 Context clues, was how many different types of methods are there, are they used often, which one of them is the one that everyone uses the most, and what does it mean exactly. What I know about context clues already is that, i know that writers use them to help us the reader, with the complicated words. I know that it explains the words within the sentence or the sentence after that contains the word. What I learned from reading this chapter is that, there are 5 different types of context clues categories which are: Definition, Synonym, Example, Contrast, and Inference. After i read this chapter I understood properly what context clues was.

Stop Asking Me My Major, reflection

           While I read "stop Asking Me My Major", i automatically started to think in the begginning when i was trying to decide my major. When i first started thinking about what i wanted to be I wanted to be a pediatrician, because I love kids and helping them would just have been another perk. As I grew up I started to like technology, I didnt know what it was about technology but it had stolen my heart. I had wanted to become a electrical engineer, and it was final no turning back from now. Everytime I saw how something was made and how it was built I felt something inside, and i knew that is something i could do for the rest of my life. My parents told me to do something I love.
