The only questions that really matter are the ones you ask yourself."-Ursula K. LeGuin
"Nothing is worth reading that does not require an alert mind."
-Charles Dudley Warner
"The greatest gift is a passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives you knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind.
It is a moral illumination."-Elizabeth Hardwick
"We turn information into knowledge by thinking about it."-Harvey and Goudvis 2007
The more complex our text, the more complex our thinking must be!
"We grow up thinking that the best answer is in someone else's brain. Much of our education is in someone else's brain. Much of our education is an elaborate game of 'guess what's in the teacher's head?' What the world really needs to know right now is what kind of dreams and ideas are in your head."
-Roger von Oech
AHS Inspired Writing (includes laptop policies)
Purdue Owl (general writing resource-anything you have ever wanted to know)
