Words make the world go around!

     Welcome to Rachel's Blog! Wait... before you skip to the next blog because you think mine is to long...just keep on reading!  As you get to know me... you will find that I always try to do my best in everything that I do.  So as a follower I hope that you will be satisfied with my different comments and opinions in the world of literature.  I am really looking forward to hearing from everyone.  I know that each of you have a ton of great ideas, just from our small discussion of To Kill a Mockingbird in class.  As different assignments are posted, I hope to bring excitement and enthusiasm to the "on-line world".  The purpose of using a blog was to help us in English, by making it interactive and fun.  Here are some of my answers to the following questions:
     "What is the meaning of English class?"  English class is meant to help you grow to your fullest potential in both reading and writing.  It also helps you to develop some of the fundamental skills for your everyday success.  So then... "Why is English a four-year requirement for college bound students?"  Well, as I said, reading and writing is a skill that you use in different aspects in any college career you take.  For example, you have to apply to get a job and if you don't have writing skills your employer may discard the application and look for someone else with more experience.  The more proficient at writing you are, the better!  With reading, you do to some extent each day, whether it is your next facebook entry or reading the Olympian. 
    I can't wait to hear the different responses! I will see everyone on Monday.  Have a great weekend.
Rachel
