In the article "National Day on Writing: Kylene Beers Leads by Example" by Karl Fisch it describes how today is the Nation Day of Writing and how Kylene Beers is doing a lot to help the population improve on their reading and writing skills. Kylene Beers is the President of the NCTE(Nation Council of Teachers of English) who is not just talking the talk but walking the walk. Kylene has started her own blog which is devoted to help improve the people's writing and reading for opportunities in the future and for everyday use. Kylene Beers is being examples to kids everwhere that reading and writing is a key part of our life because we use it in everday life situations. Kylene Beers is doing a great job and i hope she keeps up being a great role model.

  1. "Who is not just talking the talk but walking the walk." That is very important isn't it? Role models are the people who don't just speculate but also act. I agree that we need to improve our writing and reading skills, because they are obviously very important in everyday situations. How will you focus on improving both those skills?
