"Reading and writing are complementary processes that experienced readers and writers engage in recursively. Unfortunately, community colleges today are filled with developing readers and writers who require more guided practice and explicit strategies instruction to be successful in first-year composition. Reading provides students with concrete exemplars of how good writing is structured; idea generation when they lack background knowledge; and aids in generating complex and thoughtful text. That's why Writing to Read, Reading to Write presents reading, writing, and critical thinking as engaging and complementary endeavors. This focus on reading also gives students who are underprepared for the first-year composition course, or in the co-requisite support sections, a chance to practice those skills and re-apply them as they develop college level work"-- Provided by publisher
