"The best way to improve your ability to think is to spend time thinking.

One way to force yourself to slow down and think is to write. Good writing requires clear thinking.

Writing gives poor thinking nowhere to hide."

As you begin a new school year, you might ask your students this question I learned from @ernestmorrell: "What does it mean to get better at reading?" Maybe chart their responses.

Love this quote.
