Since it is just the beginning of the school year, this week we learned about how the class operates, what we will be doing throughout the year and we also simply got to know the teacher and the students in the class better. We added a description about us as writers and readers to our weebly page that really got me thinking. Before the activity, I did not really think about myself in the perspective that I had to for this writing piece. Doing the activity opened my mind up to how much time I take to read and write, how I started doing it and what I like to get out of it. I really enjoyed writing the piece about myself for my website. I think this year I will try a lot harder to get more into reading and try to get into doing it on my own time. The requirement of writing a paper about all of the books that we choose to read for SSR will give me a motivation to get it done and make sure I finish the book so I can write the best paper possible. A second thing that I enjoy in the class is the poem reading at the beginning of the hour. Usually, I do not really like to read poems but having them read to me is something I am beginning to like more. I also think that doing this will give me a better look into how different poems can be and what goes into them. I think the purpose of this is to open our minds, look at the bigger of picture if things and just to subject ourselves to world of poetry that not many people are into. This article will inform you about the benefits of reading poems! http://oureverydaylife.com/benefits-reading-poems-11971.html
