• Knowing why the piece was written and who it’s for can help explain why the author might have made certain choices or used particular techniques in the writing. when ever I am writing I alway think about  who my audience because how I write for a group of friends isn’t how  I would write for my teacher. the topics might really different. 
  • How effective is the language the author uses? Is it too formal? Too informal? Perfectly appropriate? sometimes I notice that when am reading something and I don’t understand its not because I cant read sometimes the  language is to hard to understand and its broken down I get better and I can really say I understand. so language can be a big part.  
  • Often the notes students took while reading became ideas or material for the students to use in their own papers. It’s important to read with a pen or highlighter in your hand so that you can mark—right on the text—all those spots where you identify an interesting choice the author has made or a writerly technique you might want to use. when reading it is good to have a conversation with the text and write down your thought process  because when you back and read it over or if you planning to take about it people can see what you was thinking. 
  • How can I take aspects that I feel the writer failed at and make sure not to make the same mistakes in my writing?  I always ask for feed back so I can better my writing.
