Reading Time

Brian wrote the blog, "Reading More to Better Read... What a Concept!." He talks about his class and how he gives his students more time to read. He thinks that giving them enough time to read helps them pick topics they are interested in, and makes them have enough time to take notes and such. I think he is right because when kids get to read what they want and have enough time to read it they can write more in depth and better. This also helps in my opinion because students start to learn how to think for themselves. In my English class we are blogging to learn how to think more in depth and for ourselves. Brians class is too, and they will definitely benefit from this when they get older and need to write more. They will have already had the skills to suceed. Brian also talks about how much the kids read. I think the more you read the more you are exposed to this world and the more you can connect with it. Later on in life we will have jobs and things so we need to start our connection now.
