First Stab at Essential Questions

1. What are my current reading skills?
My current reading skills differ from different ranges. Reading books and answering questions to conecting the context to a real life situation. I think that I am more able in reading the context and being questioned about it rather than to make connections or present the ideas found in the context. However, I do like to present the ideas found in the context in an active way, although I am not good at it, but I enjoy it.
2.How can I improve and grow as a reader?
I can improve and grow as a reader in many differenet ways. First, I think that enhancing my vocabulary would be very helpful because if I came across a word I didnt know in the context, my new knowledge of more vocab would help me easily to understand the context. Secondly, I think I can read more,more, and EVEN more, because as a read more things from contexts, I can learn more, such as vocabulary, and I can connect to the context and work with the idea shown more easily.
3. What purpose can literature serve in my life?
Literature can help me to be more open to details and connect with different ideas found in the context. I may not easily read books, however, I do watch the News and read lots of online articles. Lots of times, I run across different ideas and opinions from the articles I read.
4. What resources can I find in the library that will help me in this course and other courses?
The library has a lot of books that can help me in this course. I have read many good literature books and classics. These books are helpful as we might even read some of them and study them. The advantage is that I go to read the book ahead and familiarize myself with the story and the ideas presented.
