Determine Learning vs. Acquisition and explain your answer.
     Overall, I would say the biggest difference that I see between learning and acuisition in the activities is who initiates the direction the process is taking and whether the acitivity is concrete or higher level thinking. One of the most solidly clear learning activities is directed by the teacher and is mostly drill and practice like when a teacher has a sturdent look up words in a dictionary and write the defiitions. A clear acquisition acitivy is when student chooses a book and does a picture walk of a new book. Some of the activities where it wasn't clear which type it was were when students were given perameters by the teacher but choice also within those guidelines like only reading books that are within their reading level.
