Do you like reading? It is a good use of language and comunication, as well as transfering ideas
I adore reading. As an English Literature graduate, it's what I've spent a lot of my life doing. It can open so many doors.
That is for sure, it also requres continuous practive and refinement as well!
That's very true. One thing I don't like, though, is how programs like Accelerated Reading "game-ify" the reading process instead of teaching kids to enjoy reading for what it is.
I understand how that would source of frustration, it makes normal reading seem lame
Not just lame, but also that the point of reading is somehow to earn points based on how well you remember it. That's not what reading is supposed to be.
Gotcha, yeah reading requires critical analysis and creativity, not memorization
My favorite thing that reading helps you do better is actually writing, believe it or not. The best writers are themselves avid readers.
That makes sense, it would promote deep exploration of texts, not just reading or simple interpreatation
All this talk about reading is making me want to read something myself. Need to set a daily reading goal!
