An Important Key

          In the DepEd Monthly Celebrations, November is the month regarded as the English Month. All schools nationwide celebrate it with various activities and competitions such as Extemporaneous Speech, Interpretive Reading, Declamation, Essay Writing, Quiz Bee, and Speech Choir. This year, the English Month Theme is, "Pagbasa: Susi sa Magandang Kinabukasan".

          Reading is a means for language acquisition, communication, and sharing information and ideas. It is how we discover new things and how we develop a positive self-image. It helps your mind to expand more, to gain knowledge, and develop your imagination. Reading is just one word but it is probably one of the most beneficial and feasible activities that a human being can do. It is through reading that a person can discover new things, ideas, places, people, etc. Reading is essential because it is one of the most important skills a child can learn because it would be difficult to master any subject without knowing how to read. Reading helps us understand life inside and outside of school so it is really important.

          This year's theme probably encourages us all people to read for us to have a better future. Because the more you read, the more things you will know and the more that you learn. But reading should not be presented to people as a chore or a duty, it should be offered as a gift for they will benefit from it. Reading changes everything and that includes our future. It will change from better to best. So start reading because it is an important key for you to have the future you want to have.
