Dear Principal.
My name is John Smith, Senior Prefect, and I come, through this letter, to humbly ask for the integration of two important elements in the classroom, which, I believe, will form very beneficial habits for students, if they are promoted by teachers.
I believe that one of the most important skills, not only in academic life, but in social life as a whole, is the ability to interpret text. Unfortunately, I have noticed that many students have flaws in this ability and are functionally illiterate, because, although they can read, they cannot understand what they read. I believe that it would be very beneficial if teachers encouraged reading and indicated texts that should be commented, with a certain frequency, in the classroom.
The other element that I come to indicate is the execution of debates, as this will allow the students to learn to argue in a coherent and correct way, besides that it would stimulate the students to respect divergent opinions and to know how to act in a cultured way when contradicted.
If possible, I would like to arrange a meeting with you, where these and more elements can be better explained.
Thank you for your time and I await your response.
Regards
John Smith.
Senior Prefect
Because of the way he has been brought up, Walter Cunningham won't take any lunch money from Miss Caroline. As Scout explains in the book, Walter is a Cunningham, and in Maycomb, the Cunninghams are known to be a poor but proud family. I hope this helped!
The Bible contains 66 separate books, which were written by thirty six men who were chosen by God to script His words. This took place over 1600 years and the evidence is in the events and the purpose of the scriptures.
The purpose of the entire Bible is to tell us about our condition of being separated from God because of our sins, God's plan to bring a Savior to die in our place for our sins, Jesus' birth, life, death and resurrection, that God's prophecy has taken place and about our invitation to belong to God as His adopted children through acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Lord and our Savior.
The Bible is God's written Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit.
“Above all you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.” 2 Peter 1:20-21. (New International Version)
Breakdown of the Bible 36 human authors inspired entirely by God over 1600 years. 66 separate books
