I would love to say, reading and writing are the conjoined twins.

How I came to know this one to search and share?

I started picking up a pic for my desktop background pic. Usually, I started thinking too deeper if I started doing something. I just searched online to get some of the pics. Finally, few of the Stephen King quote also appeared in the searches. I grabbed it. And I felt this one would be perfect.

Interestingly, apart from searching for the pic. I started scrolling and looking deeply what’s been said in the Wikipedia and other blogs. This content catches to my eye. I read it sincerely. And I would like to share it too. I feel this is such an important one everyone has to read.

Each and every day, I started dedicating more conscious in reading and writing. Sometimes, I think, did I read more? How many vocabularies I remembered today? How can apply those vocabularies in the real-time?

I would like to paste the source link down below. I highly encourage readers to visit further.

For many years reading and writing were (and sometimes still are) taught separately. Though the two have almost always been taught by the same person (the English/Language Arts teacher) during the Language Arts period or block, educators rarely made explicit connections between the two for their students. Over the last ten years research has shown that reading and writing are more interdependent than we thought. The relationship between reading and writing is a bit like that of the chicken and egg. Which came first is not as important as the fact that without one the other cannot exist. A child’s literacy development is dependent on this interconnection between reading and writing.

The Relationship Between Reading and Writing

Basically put: reading affects writing and writing affects reading. According to recommendations from the major English/Language Arts professional organizations, reading instruction is most effective when intertwined with writing instruction and vice versa. Research has found that when children read extensively they become better writers. Reading a variety of genres helps children learn text structures and language that they can then transfer to their own writing. In addition, reading provides young people with prior knowledge that they can use in their stories. One of the primary reasons that we read is to learn. Especially while we are still in school, a major portion of what we know comes from the texts we read. Since writing is the act of transmitting knowledge in print, we must have information to share before we can write it. Therefore reading plays a major role in writing.

At the same time practice in writing helps children build their reading skills. This is especially true for younger children who are working to develop phonemic awareness and phonics skills. Phonemic awareness (the understanding that words are developed from sound “chunks”) develops as children read and write new words. Similarly, phonics skills or the ability to link sounds together to construct words are reinforced when children read and write the same words. For older children practice in the process of writing their own texts helps them analyze the pieces that they read. They can apply their knowledge about the ways that they chose to use particular language, text structure or content to better understand a professional author’s construction of his or her texts.

Harnessing the Reading-Writing Relationship to Help Children Learn

Simply knowing that reading and writing are intimately connected processes isn’t enough. In order to help children develop these two essential skills, parents and teachers need to apply this knowledge when working with them. Here are a few strategies for using reading and writing to reinforce development of literacy skills.

Genre Study

One of the most effective ways to use the relationship between reading and writing to foster literacy development is by immersing children in a specific genre. Parents and teachers should identify a genre that is essential to a grade level’s curriculum or is of particular interest to a child or group of children. They should then study this genre with the child(ren) from the reading and writing perspectives. Children should read and discuss with adults high quality examples of works written in the genre focusing on its structure and language as well as other basic reading skills including phonics and comprehension. Once children have studied the genre to identify its essential elements, they should be given opportunities to write in the genre. As they are writing, adults should help them apply what they have learned from reading genre specific texts to guide their composition. This process should be recursive to allow children to repeatedly move between reading and writing in the genre. In the end children will not only have a solid and rich knowledge of the genre, but will also have strengthened their general reading and writing skills.

Reading to Develop Specific Writing Skills

Parents and teachers do not have to engage in an extensive genre study to foster their children’s reading and writing abilities. Texts can be used on limited basis to help children learn and strengthen specific writing skills. Parents and teachers should first identify writing skills that a particular child or group of children need support in developing. For example, many students in a seventh grade class might have difficulty writing attention getting introductions in their essays. One of the most effective ways to help children build specific writing skills is to show and discuss with them models that successfully demonstrate the skill. Adults should select a number of texts where the authors “nail” the area that they want to help their children grow in. For our sample seventh graders we’d want to find several pieces of writing with strong, engaging introductions and read and analyze these with the students. Once children have explored effective models of the skill, they should be given opportunities to practice it. They can either write new pieces or revise previous pieces of writing emulating the authors’ techniques.

Integrating “Sound” Instruction in Reading and Writing

Phonemic awareness and phonics are two of the pillars of reading. Without understanding the connection between sounds and letters, a person cannot read. The connection between reading and writing can help solidify these skills in young readers. Parents and teachers should help children “sound out” words in both their reading and writing. When a child comes to a word in their reading that is unfamiliar, the adult(s) working with her can model or guide her in sounding out the word using knowledge of phonemes (sound “chunks”). Similarly, if a child wants to write a new word the adult(s) can use the same technique to help her choose which letters to write. If the child is younger, accurate spelling is not as important as an understanding of the connection between particular sounds and letters. Therefore helping the child pick letters that approximate the spelling is more appropriate than providing him with the actual spelling. If the child is older and has an understanding of some of the unique variations in the English language (such as silent “e”), the parent or teacher should encourage him to use that knowledge to come up with the spelling of the word.

Choice in Reading and Writing

Another effective method for using the relationship between reading and writing to foster literacy development is simply giving children the choice in their reading and writing experiences. We learn best when we are motivated. If children are always told exactly what to read and what to write, they will eventually either come to see reading and writing as impersonal events or will “shut down”. Often in classrooms, teachers allow children to select their own books to read during independent reading time, but they rarely give them the opportunity to pick their own writing topics. In order to encourage ownership over their reading and writing, children should be given chances to read and write what is interesting and important to them.

Talk About It!

While it may seem like common sense to adults that reading and writing have a lot to do with each other, the connection is not always as apparent to young people. Parents and teachers should explain how the two skills reinforce and strengthen each other. Young people (especially adolescents) often ask their parents and teachers, “Why do I have to learn this?” Here is a perfect opportunity to show the relationship between two essential academic and life skills.

Over the last month, I started looking substantially more on carrier guidance from someone. Because I feel like required. I’m still looking for a better version on myself.

Up next, what I would do is, altruism. Quite honestly, I started doing it. The more you learn and the more you have to deliver to the globe. Serve for the globe. Leave your legacy quietly.

Here, in this post, I just started searching more on Forbes these kinds of contents. The author had written today. Thank you almighty, on this fine day. I was lucky and deserved to see it.

I sincerely encourage all the readers to read it.

In this time of working remotely, you have the time to really assess your strengths and weaknesses and ultimately, your value in relation to your career aspirations. More importantly, it’s a perfect time to add critical skills and knowledge. Your ability to solve problems, albeit remotely, is becoming critical and your creativity to solve those problems is now a necessity. It’s time to improve your creativity skills.

Why should you purposely develop your creativity skills? According to the most recent IBM global CEO survey, CEO’s rated creativity as the number one attribute they look for in new employees. Their rationale is that the world is moving too fast, companies face problems each and every day, competition can come from everywhere and they are one innovation away from a competitor putting them out of business. So, they want to recruit new employees who can nimbly, with flexibility and creativity, work in teams to solve problems.

The ability to solve problems is the key reason you want to be more creative as your everyday work life is filled with a complex set of challenges mostly related to problems and opportunities.  And regardless of what you believe, everyone can be more creative on purpose. You just can’t wish it; you have to work it. The good news is that I believe there is a formula we can follow to purposely be more creative.

The formula to being more creative on purpose is a mix of growth mindset and curiosity combined with actual problem solving tools which hopefully yields better solutions that if implemented would be innovative. Sounds complicated, so let me break it down.

Being more creative on purpose. The key here is to purposely seek out the knowledge, learning and experiences that take you down a creativity path. If you don’t understand it, read up on growth mindset. Amp up your curiosity skills by changing your patterns, learning something new, hanging out with people who spark your thinking, and actually doing something new. Learn to code, paint and speak in a new language. Just begin to do. Also read books on creative confidence and creative culture by Tom Kelley (Ideo) and Ed Catmull (Pixar). Creativity will be so key to your career success, you need to invest in it now so that you can lead teams to solve challenging problems and come up with amazing solutions.

Learning how to solve problems.  You don’t solve problems by pulling random people in a room and doing a brainstorming session that goes no where over two hours.  First, research and learn problem solving frameworks. Second, learn how to really identify the real problem and not the symptom. Is getting sunburned the problem? No, it’s the symptom of the real problem (i.e. not enough sunscreen, waterproof sunscreen, knowing you have fair skin, not understanding how long you have been in the sun, etc.). Understand current trends and their affect on the problem. Use a brainstorming framework (limited time, diverse group of people, clear identification of problem, shared input, no criticism, etc.) and use tools that will help you identify solutions to problems like MindMap, SCAMPER and Blue Ocean Strategy.

Allowing innovation to happen. If I asked you to be more innovative, what would you do? It’s almost impossible to be innovative on purpose. This is where the formula I mentioned above comes into play.  Growth mindset + curiosity + problem solving framework and tools = potential innovation. You can’t predict innovation; you can just try and solve the problem in such a creative way that when you launch the product or service, the market deems it innovative because of how you solved the problem. Are the following innovative: teeth whitening toothpaste, waterproof boots, keys that float, post it notes, Waze, and so on? Yes, they are. Because they solved a particular problem and the solution was accepted as new and innovative by the market.

Don’t leave your ability to solve problems to chance. Learn how to be more creative and solve problems on purpose. Who knows, perhaps your solution will even be innovative.

The word wise, I learned from Buddha. This word often rings me in my mind and heart too. I started knowing and realizing being a wise man. Quite honestly, I don’t know. Even I don’t have a clear picture of what it takes to become? Please correct me, if I’m wrong. A wise man has a fair judgement. Nothing more and nothing less, I started knowing a wise man knows right and wrong. I started becoming a wise man till my end of life.
