Writing Rubric
Click on the image above to get a clearer picture of the rubric.
Reading and writing going hand in hand. Reading and writing are important factors in everything we do from class, to work and also our personal lives. In class and work we do assignments and at home during personal time we text, email, etc.When you read you develop your writing and when you write you develop your reading. Reading and writing is kind of like the question which came first the chicken or the egg.
I love the question on which came first. I believe writing came first because there had to be something to read in the first place. Both skills work together to improve both reading and writing skills!
Both skills are necessary in our daily lives. It is hard to imagine without it. Both skills work together in perfect harmony. One cannot go over the other.
You can't learn without reading or writing. Reading gives you the knowledge you need to learn and writing gives you the ability to write down your knowledge. When you use these two skills, you can create the ability to think, brainstorm, and more.
I agree! We cannot learn without both skills. It is so essential in today's society to have great reading and writing skills. Reading and Writing definitely helps you brainstorm and such.
Reading and writing go hand in hand because of course you need one to be able to do the other. They do approve your ability to think because as you write you are thinking of what you're going to write next, and as you read you are thinking about what you're reading.
Agreed. They work with each other. Writing does not only improve your writing skills, but also helps improve your reading skills! They are both so important.
I agree. Both skill does improve your knowledge. That knowledge can go beyond our potential with reading and writing skills. They work together in harmony and cannot live without them.
I agree, it is real easy just to get down the basics of reading, writing, and the thinking part is just common sense, when you want to write what do you do before you even write.. YOU THINK
Reading and Writing go hand in hand. This is because if you know how to read, then you know how to write, its the other way around. You need to be able to write to know how to read. The quote above pretty much says it all, reading and writing works together to improve the ability to think.
Reading and writing go hand in hand because one cannot exist without the other. Writing does not only improve your writing skills, but also your reading skills as well! Reading and writing are so important in our everyday lives and I can't see us living with them both.
Todays activities were awesome. We posted in our moodle page, and BlogSpot page. I cannot believe the semesters already ending! Im going to miss you all!
Indeed. It is impossible to live without one or the other. Writing, reading, thinking, and communication must be an essential skill. I am surprise that this semester flies by fast. This is a fun class.
Very true! In order to make both of the terms exist, they must both be present. I can't believe this semester is coming to an end as well. It is crazy how time goes by so fast!
TRUE THAT MAN SPEAK THE TRUTH lol. Couldn't agree more, we are not living if we don't know how to read or write or even think. I mean come on how else would you know what kind of ice cream you want.
Reading and writing hand in hand. to interpret this I would say that the by reading it helps you to develop your skills on writing. For instance, it helps you to be familiar in terms that you haven't heard or read before. It also helps you on grammar skills and gives you idea. While writing it helps you to think. Because when you write you actually think of things you want to write about.. Today's activity is really helpful. While I'm doing this I am actually reading, writing, and thinking.
Very well said. Reading does help develop writing skills and visversa. I like the idea that both skills does help get knowledge of a term. This is a necessity for society.
Reading and writing is essential on a daily basis. It is impossible to apply one over the other. Like the quote said, you learn to write and get better at reading ,and visversa. Through our lives, reading and writing is the first step to learn, apply, and experience the daily activities around you. Internationally, it is required to learn and apply both reading and writing skills no matter what language it is. Without one, you cannot do the other. Without both, you would not get far in life.
Reading, writing, and thinking is what we are born to do. It is very important because with out those skills you technically have a mind of a baby. How else would you find a job, how else would you apply for school, how else would you understand the laws of a federal government. Basically we use these skills every second of every day. My thoughts on todays activities were simple. Work, attack, and move on. Good moodle session if that's what your asking about todays activities and also a good blog mind attack. My personal quote of the day.
Reading, writing, and thinking go hand in hand. These three things are important because they are required in every works. With reading and writing, I would be able to suggest various topics, minor and major details on topic. Today's ability was confusing for me little bit but it was meaningful. I had a problem to understand what argument is. However, I could remind what argument is by today's activity.
This quote is simple but has a lot of meaning to it. we must learn to read before we learn to write. vice versa, in order to succeed we must know how to read, write and think. without the knowledge of reading, writing and thinking we will not be able to make it in to good schools, get great jobs and help our children develop great knowledge and improve for the future.
I certainly agree with the quote. By reading books or other people's work, you learn from their style and technique or writing. Then, by writing, sometimes you have to use other words so you look up synonyms. By doing that, you are broadening your vocabulary so that when you read, you know more words that may come up in your book. With reading and writing, you have to think of what the author is trying to say and also think of things to write about. In doing that, you are exercising you mind.
This quote could not be more true. With every step this increases your ability to write better. Although not everybody loves to read it's very important because reading increases vocabulary. And with better vocabulary you can write well written essays. I'm not the best at writing but I love to read. Hopefully, I can improve my writing skills.
This quote means that through both of these skills you can improve one or the other. Both reading and writing work hand in hand because they both compliment and enhance the ability of the other. In order to write better you need to read more often and in order to read better you need to improve your writing skills.
Reading and writing is a union. Both blend well together. Reading and writing improves together. Reading often tends to enhance writing skills. Writing often helps with reading. Both need each other to work together harmoniously.
My opinion on what this quote means to me has everything to do with imagination and creativity. " You learn to write better by reading..." Reading something that captures and intrigues your thoughts and influences your pen to paper are ways I believe reading and writing go hand in hand with each other. Reading and writing are our greatest gifts to communicate with each other.
I like the way you defined that quote. You do learn to write better by reading. Writing about something that captures your thoughts from reading explains why they work hand in hand.
Reading, writing and thinking definitely go hand in hand because they feed off of each other. In other words, writing is thinking and reading and writing encourages us to think. You also cannot write if you do not know how to read. It is an essential part of every individual's lives.
In order to become a effective writer you must be an effective reader. They go hand in hand. We are unable to think and write about a topic unless we read what it is we are going to write about.

DeleteI agree. While using one, you will then have to use the other.
DeleteAgreed without the other it is impossible.
DeleteI agree. While doing one you are focusing mainly on what you are doing.
