The quote above is essentially reading plus writing equals thinking. What I think it's saying is that the more you read and write the more and better you think. When you read, you intake a lot of information. When you write, you remember what you read and put it down. It's a cycle. Because of these two, you think about what you read and what you write, hence this quote.
So today was fun, like a lot of our other days. We laughed a lot which is always a good thing. And I just found out Abby is hungry, but isnt she always? Just kidding Abby.....or not. Anyways, I remember when I did this last year. We got into a debate. Tips versus no tips.
Sine we were little, we were read to. As we hear more words consistently, we pick up vocabularies. We then practice to write and feel comfortable using variety of terms. As we adapt to more advanced writing, we also improve our reading skills.
Today's activity was very interactive. I love how the class is very open to participate in class discussions. It made me realize how being a food server is can be beneficial. We review of citing from reliable source was a great .
The quote is very true to me. The more you read the better you write. Vice versa for the more you write. Doing both activities does help with your thinking, especially when thinking critically.
Today's activity was great as well. We got to learn more about how to cite references, especially with multiple authors.
I connect to this quote as well. As I read novels, I began to improve my critical thinking. As well as writing in my journal helped improved my writing skills.
I find the quote above to be true. The more we read something, the more we can expand our vocabulary which will help us improve our writing ability. Same thing goes with learning how to read by writing. Without doing any of the two stated in the quote, people will have trouble to think about what they are writing.
Today was interesting, because we had the chance to learn more about citing references. The waiter essay was interesting too.
As babies we learn how to speak because we are spoken to. We learn to read because we are taught how to read. And we write because it helps us in our reading also. Without doing both constantly you might lose what you know. Today in class we went over the proper way to work cite and I so glad we did because it is a refresher for me. I am very sad that our class time is coming to an end.
This quote is very true. The more we read, the more we can understand and comprehend with something. Reading also helps us build our vocabulary. Building vocabulary will help us build intelligence. In addition, reading will also help us write. Usually what you read, you write.
Today's class helped me understand more about citation. Also, the waiter essay made me realize that tipping is important.
Absolutely! Both tasks are interdependent amongst each other. Reading builds comprehension, improves critical thinking skills and expands your vocabulary. Reading and writing enable individuals to succeed academically, socially, emotionally, spiritually etc.
Class activities definitely rock! We have an enjoyable group while learning something new.
I apologize for blogging late but I thought I'd just blog anyway. Both reading and writing are important aspect in living in the world. Everyday consists of reading and writing something. It improves many skills and can help someone interact in new conversations. Last classes activity was great!! I love how we can all be nice and friendly with each other.
Reading and writing are an important part in gaining new knowledge and be able to have better conversations with others because there are more things you can talk about. It can help us to be successful in our future careers and it can build relationships with others as well.
Class activities are always awesome and fun! It is a little sad that the semester is almost done.
