The Importance of Reading

Hi Everyone,
With the increasing use of computers in school and at home, it appears that many pupils are not reading enough books. They spend a disproportionate about of time infront of their computers instead of reading. For this week's journal writing, I would like you to reflect on the importance of reading in your learning in school. To help you in your writing, I have listed some questions for you to ponder:
1. Why is reading so important to learning?
2. What types of books do you read?
3. Where can you get books to read?
4. How do you ensure that you get the best out of the books you read?
5. Do you like reading? Why?
6. What do you think the teachers can do to make you want to read?

Hope to read your reflection soon.

Mr Ong
