Effective Literacy Promotion
I think there is a serious question to address in regards to teaching literacy is whether our students are in need of more reading instruction or written instruction. Current speculation predicts that composition is obtaining a higher rank above reading. I would see this as a practical move when reading skills are not immediately producing efficient writing skills. But I still believe that an effective combination of both reading and writing can provide successful results in student learning.

I believe that writers who read more can write better, because writing improves when the writer develops his or her own skills after reading other writings too.
ReplyDeleteAlthough composition is important some teachers forget to emphasize the importance of the other language acquisition factors, as well. There should be more activities to enhance all styles of learning.
