Why Our Community Should Have A Reads Program

238 Words1 Page

As a student in Laurel High School. I have observed the best that can happen in our community is for us to help one another. Helping one another brings success. Examples like respect to our elders, respect to our teachers, respect for the law of the community, and respect to our fellow students. These examples are found in many different books. That is why I suggest that our community should have a “Reads Program”. This program will be supervised by our teachers from various schools and evaluated through interrelated school activities such as sports.
Having a book club helps each reader to listen to others point of view. Allows others to meet new people. Makes reading fun and enjoyable and set examples for our younger ones. Builds up our comprehension

    While it may be true that even if a student is reading Sports Illustrated, they will still become more literate and reflective than if they hadn’t read at all, it is also true that the student is then less likely to read the same desired material outside of class because they are already being forced to read it inside of class. Moreover, if class time is spent reading something such as Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers: The Story of Success, the student will be more inclined to read Sports Illustrated outside of class; thus, increasing their reading time altogether. On the report of Engaging Schools: Fostering High School Students’ Motivation to Learn, “studies have shown that students who read outside of school become better readers (Anderson, Wilson, and Fielding, 1988; Fielding, 1994; Guthrie, Schafer, Wang, and Afflerbach, 1995)” (64). Therefore, by engaging in materials which the students may not be interested in during the school day, they will be more likely to read other subject matters outside of school and consequently increase their reading

    After attending this school for almost two years and hearing their mantras daily, I have become more adept in applying these to overcome problems. Teachers, mentors, and principals encourage us to identify when we use these on a daily basis, and when I think of challenges where I have had to apply these, one specific incident comes to mind. Last summer, I volunteered in my church’s summer camp. One major thing that separates us from other camps is that teenagers are in charge of practically all the functions in the camp. We plan every hour of every week, manage a budget, make reservations, practically become surrogate parents, but with more expectations.
