My interpretation of this quote is that it is better to learn how to write by reading writings such as novels and articles. There are so many good examples of writing in a book that I can use. It is the same thing to the second sentence as well. I can train my reading by writing. Writing efficient sentences help me understand the point or meaning of sentences when I read. Writing and reading contribute to my thinking skills. I always need to think when I write or read.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I could not be able to reply on moodle. Could you reply on moodle?
I agree with your interpretation. I also was not able to reply on Moodle.
DeleteI agree with your interpretation. I could not reply, too. I am thinking of sending my work to her by email.
DeleteI could not reply on Moodle either.
DeleteSo do we still have to post on Moodle?
DeleteBe sure to post in our EN100 Moodleroom, too. It should be working now. Good luck, and happy Moodling!
DeleteBest regards,
Dr. Rivera
Moodle does work now, so we can do our assignment now. i too agree with your interpretation.
DeleteI also could not post on moodle. It is frustrating when the site we are supposed to go on isn't working because I am not trying to get an absent.
DeleteI make sense of this as it goes hand-in-hand. You learn to write better by reading. Reading different types of work will give you the idea of how to write. You learn to read by writing. When you read what you ride, you have to make sure it makes sense also that there is a brief stop when you come to commas and periods. Putting the to together, you improve your ability to think. By this, when you read what you write and write what you read, you are using your head to think. Also, you comprehend things better.
ReplyDeleteI like your interpretation. everything is true what you wrote in this post.
DeletePutting the two together, you improve your ability to think.*
DeleteI have a habit on using to much commas when I write, but I agree with you it does make sense.
DeleteI agree on comprehend things better
DeleteI agree with you that when I read what I write and write what I read, I am using MY head to think.
DeleteI like your interpretation of this quote. When you read and comprehend you can convert that to writing.
Deletei think that more you read the more vocabulary you learn. i usually don't like to read but i have to, to learn more.

ReplyDeleteWe can learn creative writing skills from reading books. If we know how to write, it is easier to read. Reading skill helps how to write an essay. Writing skill helps to read something with understanding. They are always working together and improving each other. When both of the skills are advantaged, we are able to think creatively. I am very agree with this quote. I learned so many good expressions by reading someone's writing. And I have been trying to use the good expression in my way when I write essays.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of yours of putting good expressions when writing.
DeleteI agree with that we can learn creative writing skills from books. It should be easier to read if we know how to read.
DeleteIt is true that we learn creative writing skills from books, but also from different types of articles. I agree that working on both helps improve each other.
DeleteI like your idea of reading creative writing and using it as your muse.
Deletei like how you put working together, can help us all improve each other.
DeleteEvery time you read, you get stronger in writing. When you write, you get stronger in reading. If we know how to do both, then we can be smarter than we were before.
DeleteGood interpretation. I also agree with your idea of creativity.
DeleteI like the way how they combined all of the key components in writing in one quote. Because when you ready you learn how to write different types of writing. When you write you get better at reading harder topics. By doing both you get to expand your vocabulary and your ability to think better. It also makes you become a great and smart person in society.
ReplyDeleteI may still have some small trouble on understanding unrecognizable vocabulary.
DeleteI liked the way how they combined all of the key components. The quote is very simple but it is persuasive.
DeleteI like the way how they combined all of the key components in writing in one quote too. I want to be a great and smart person but it will be too hard for me to accomplish that.
DeleteYou summarized your interpretation good. I agree with everything you mentioned.
DeleteI love to read, and expanding my vocabulary.
DeleteNice summary Hill. I like reading more than I like writing.
DeleteI agree that reading a lot can help you enormously. It expands your knowledge in many ways you can write a sentence. Reading makes you smarter.
DeleteYou can not learn one of them without the other as in you can not learn how to read , if you can not write, and you can not write without learning how to read. When learning both of them you can improve your thoughts clearly. Reading will help you know what to write and think better on the paragraph, article, or book. For the quote, it took me awhile to think clearly how to explain in another way on what it means. This also made me need to read more carefully before jumping into conclusions.
ReplyDeleteI really agree with what you wrote. We need to learn both of them.
DeleteI agree with you. We cannot learn one of them without the other. I need to read more to improve my English.
DeleteThis quote also made me think a little. It is very true that you can not do one with out the other.
Deletesame here, i had to read it a couple times to fully understand it, and finally i learned what it meant.
DeleteI agree that you can't do one without the other. Reading does help you how to write, so when you read more, you'll learn how to write better. And I also learned not to jump into conclusions because I might get the wrong interpretation.
DeleteI agree. You need both concepts in order for both to exist. It does take a while to comprehend what you've read or what you wrote, but if you practice often, you will soon master both.
DeleteMy interpretation of the quote is that writing and reading goes hand in hand. The more you read the more ideas and inspiration that you can take fro the different genres. I love to read but have always found it difficult to write, until this class.
ReplyDeleteMy interpretation of this quote is that reading and writing can benefit you. You write better when you read. You read better when you write. When you do both, it helps you improve your ability to think, you start using bigger vocabulary, and more ideas begin to overflow your head. I also love reading and it really does help with your writing.
ReplyDeleteI agree that reading and writing are both beneficial. Good interpretation.
DeleteI agree that reading is a great way to exercise your brain. You learn new words and expand your creativity as well. Writing increases your level on how to read and use words effectively.
Deletei have the same feeling about this. they all work together to create one great thing.
DeleteOne way to exercise reading and writing is to write out a poem, preferably five sentences that rhyme at the odd-numbered lines.
DeleteIn my interpretation, the more you read the more you understand, and you expand your horizon as far as your vocabulary and knowledge. Today’s activity was alright. I learned new things that will help me with organizing my essay. Also, that reading was okay, learned some new facts about the sea.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. Reading is a way to increase your knowledge about everything. Also, today was informative.
DeleteWhenever I find something interesting online I'd go on wikipedia and read about it. The knowledge becomes imprinted in my head. California was named after and Amazonian Queen.
DeleteExpanding our horizon is right, the more we practice the better we get.
DeleteReading is important! You can learn so many things from reading anything!
DeleteThe more you read, you get a clearer view of how to write and when you read what you write, you can see if it makes actual sense. When you read and write, it expands your knowledge because you're exercising your brain. When you read, you're exercising your brain for writing. When you write, you practice your reading because you can tell if it makes sense or not.
ReplyDeleteI agree with how both can expand your knowledge.
DeleteI agree. Writing helps improve your reading skills. Reading is an exercise to the brain preparing your brain on how to write.
DeleteCoffee accelerates my drive, otherwise my head becomes overloaded.
DeleteI like how you took each line and explained how each would help the other aspect, kind of like analysis by division.
DeleteI agree. If you begin to read more and more your creativity will soon be remarkable. You will begin to absorb new and more information that will guide you to write bigger and better things. Writing increases your knowledge of words to use. From basic words to college level interpretations.
ReplyDeleteI read more and more, my imagination soared. I read even more, my imagination became uncontrollable and random.
DeleteI agree with you on how reading makes you more creative! Reading can take you to so many places just by using your imagination.

ReplyDeleteI get from this quote that in does go hand in hand. reading allows your mind to think and that way when you need to write, your ideas that you have gathered from reading are already instilled in your brain. it is a chain effect and they all serve as ways to help each other in the long run.
ReplyDeleteI agree with how you said that it is a chain effect, its similar to how I explained it.
DeleteIt really is a chain effect. If you don't have one, you can't really have any of them.
DeleteI'd like to kick K.A. Applegate out into the open for her Animorphs series. I read more than 60 books of the series when I was younger, and I believe it helped me with my way of wording out explanations and writing. But I hope my handwriting is understandable to most people because even I feel insecure about reading it.
ReplyDeleteWhen reading and writhing are both incorporated as a unity, they work cohesively. Continually practicing both skill sets, it can helps with your intellectual health. Intellectual health increases your ability to define and solve problems. For example, with today’s activities, I had to read the paragraph and then answer the questions given. By doing both skills, it helped me retain the knowledge from the passage better.
ReplyDeleteI feel that the highlighted key words are the ingredients to successfully improve ones self not only intellectually or literately but all around as well. It is like the circle of life but in this case the circle of literature. Taking only one thing to start the ripple effect and everything falling into place, because without one of these things it would not work as effectively.
ReplyDeleteI like you not only applied this quote to just literature but also life!
DeleteWhen you read different types of books, which shows you how to write. There are different reading levels and when you learn how to read those levels it improves your writing. When you read or write you are stretching your brain so you can understand and that improves your ability to think. I really like this quote because it is so true. Reading leads to better writing and that leads to better thinking skills. I used to read a lot but now I don’t. I really should start reading again so I can improve my writing.
