I would like to call my experience of writing as the life of reading and writing. In my opinion, writing can not be achieved without reading. When we are in elementary school, we start writing. We know how to read words before we start writing words. Before we start writing, we already read a lot. Like before you learn to cook, you always need to see how people cooking, how do they use the stove and pot. The experience of reading supports writing. Like a tall building, reading is the base, with reading, people can continue building their writing skills. In a word, we learn the power of words and its unique characteristic by the process of writing to reading. I like reading since I was a little girl. It is in the elementary school. I don’t …show more content…
Pride and Prejudice are the foreign classics I read more than four times. I like the story of Elizabeth and Darcy. For every time I read Pride and Prejudice, I get some new thing. The first time I read, I pay attention to the love story between Elizabeth and Darcy. The second time I read, I find that the story between Jane and Bingley is also interesting. The third time, I notice that the story between Lydia and Wickham also happens to some people. By reading those classics, I have the passion for reading and start interesting in writing. I wonder if I will write a story, what kind of story will I write? How is the relationship between characters? What will happen between that character? Will it be a funny story? Or a serious …show more content…
It really helps me lots. I learn how to organize my story, how to catch readers’ attention, how to writing vividly, and how to express my ideas. And we practice writing at school. By doing this, writing skills improve. By writing lots, I think, writing is not only putting words in order but also get a deep thinking about what I notice. Writing should not be in the purpose of writing, it should writing of what we want to record, what we want to express, to show my opinion and feeling. We should enjoy in writing, rather than just for the task. Writing should be written for fun, writing should not make people feel
People write for many reasons. They write to educate, , and to entertain to express
I am sitting in my bed, thinking about my process of writing as I am trying to go through it. It seems the more I think about it, the less I understand it. When I am writing, I don’t think. Which I know, sounds bad. But, I spend every single moment of every single day over thinking, over analyzing, and over assuming every aspect of my life. When I’m writing, I’m free from that for just a little bit. Until of course, my hands stop typing or the pencil (no pens- never pens) stops moving, then I’m right back on the carousel that is my brain. Heidi Estrem says, “...writers use writing to generate knowledge that they didn’t have before.” (Writing is a Knowledge-Making Activity 18). I believe my ability to write without an exact destination
Writing helps you to dig into your heart. Writing will help you to find your life’s true purpose. Writing helps you to Let go the stress.
Many people including me believe that reading and writing should not only be done for the purpose of getting a good grade or because a teacher tells you to but that it is like most journeys because it begins with a single step and should be practiced daily and both appreciated and respected not looked on as a trial or a punishment but as a creative outlet for the mind.
Writing is an art form that some people are blessed with being naturally talented at, and some individuals must learn and be instructed in order to become a talented writer. In our modern day American society, there is a strong need to have talented writers, so there is a large push to teach writing from grade school all the way up through college. I am an individual who was never naturally good at writing, but I was taught how to be a good writing. From my education I think I have made great strides in my ability and can pick out some qualities that distinguish good writing from bad writing. Overall, good writing takes many forms.
Throughout school reading and writing has impacted me greatly in many ways. Being an advanced reader at a young age made it possibly to set myself apart from other students and shine brightly in areas that others could not. It also has helped to change my perspective on things in life, when reading about true events happening
If students are taught the modern writing process, they will become better writers as a whole. Writing is dynamic and requires much dedication to improve upon style. Improvement stems from repetition, and incorporating writing into every aspect of life will enhance writing skills. A skilled writer will learn to write from many perspectives, including their own and their audiences. Finding your personal ritual will help you write a more proficient piece of work.
One can never be done learning how to write; new techniques, styles, and forms arise on a daily basis and allowing creativity to flow is an unending process. Through the process of writing and the writing done in the class, I have come to learn a great deal about myself and others. Writing acts as a form of communication. People
Writing for me has always been a love and hate relationship since I could remember. Depending on the subject matter that I was writing about I would enjoy it because it suited my style or I loathed it because that specific style was uninteresting and boring to me. Learning certain writing formats were absolutely the worst part about writing when I first started learning in high school. As time pushed on and I grew older I began to develop an appreciation for writing that I did not have before; which is what led me to taking Writing 101 as my first full-fledged college course. I began this course with minimal writing experience because of what I failed to retain before, but now I am a stronger writer than I could have imagined with new skill sets that enhance my professional portfolio.
Without reading and writing, I wouldn’t know as much as I do now. Growing up I always hated to read , I never could remember what I had read. Finally I took my time and whisper read. I started to see a tariffic difference I started remembering what I had read and what the book was about . This felt AMAZING. It felt like I accomplished a lot. It made me happy! It was like doing something you've never done but always wanted to do. I started getting the chills started smiling about what was being read, I started reading more and more! I have always loved to write since i was about 10years old I always had so much fun using my imagination to write or even writing about true things is was always a
There are many different types of events that shape who we are as writers and how we view literacy. Reading and writing is viewed as a chore among a number of people because of bad experiences they had when they were first starting to read and write. In my experience reading and writing has always been something to rejoice, not renounce, and that is because I have had positive memories about them.
I believe that reading and writing should not only be done to receive a good grade or because a teacher tells you to but you should tackle it like most journeys, because it begins with a single step and they both need to be practiced daily and also both appreciated and respected and on as a trial students need to overcome or as a punishment but as a creative outlet for the mind. I know for me I hope that my love affair with the spoken and written word and my love of books only gets deeper and more involved as I get older and move up in the world because I understand that we need to have many skills in order to accomplish anything in the world that we live in today and the more goals that we achieve in our life whether they be professional or personal the better we will feel about ourselves and how we look at the world around us will also change for the better.
“Man is an animal that lives in language as a fish lives in water and so written communication is just one of the ways that man can survive through” (English scholar Annie Dillard). Writing is a skill to give information. Like all skills, it is not inborn and so it needs to be learnt. To give information you need good communication skills including the ability to write simply, clearly and concisely (Harris & Cunningham, 1996).
In my time as a reader/writer I’ve developed a broad knowledge of literacy. What made me, the reader/wrtier that I am today goes back to the second grade. In the second grade we did A.R. reading, we set goals every week and read books that were only at our reading level. Then we went to the library to type words. Throughout most of the second grade I didn’t really try with reading or writing, but it really started in the third grade when my teacher made me read and write everyday. She made me reach a goal every day, and eventually it got to a point where I was one of the best readers and a good writer. I had to summarize each story we read in class and then write my opinion on the story and what I learned from reading it.
The ability to write well is not a naturally acquired skill; it is usually learned or culturally transmitted as a set of practices in formal instructional settings or other environments. Writing skills must be practiced and learned through experience. Writing also involves composing, which implies the ability either to tell or retell pieces of information in the form of narratives or description, or to transform information into new texts, as in expository or argumentative writing. Perhaps it is best viewed as a continuum of activities that range from the more mechanical or formal aspects of “writing down” on the one end, to the more complex act of composing on the other end (Omaggio Hadley, 1993). It is undoubtedly the act of
