Women as Agents of Change

Writing is not just marking letters, words, or symbols on a piece of work. My perspective states that writing is not just expressing yourself through words; in fact, it is mostly one’s expression; your emotions, thoughts, beliefs, etc. Correspondingly, according to myself, writing is extremely artistic and evocative way to reveal one self’s personality. Most important, I am in the creative writing class, because I desired to be in it, due to the fact that it is my passion, it is a way I can express myself thoroughly, and it makes me feel as if I am in a whole different world where I can reveal everything I desire.

Writing is an essential skill that students will use and apply for the rest of their lives. Teaching students to become strong writers is a daily task and involves writing more than just an essay. Research indicates that by the middle school level students should be writing at least 60 minutes a day. A practice of daily writing helps build writing fluency that transcends across the curriculum. However, this can be a daunting task especially when students don’t like to write. In a time when writing is essential to the curriculum, how do we build a community of lifelong writers?

Writing is often considered mundane and banal to some students. In fact, people have even written things down since the beginning of time.

Equality is like a scale; when fairly balanced, each group gets the same opportunities that weigh them down. No one gets more, no one gets less. In the 19th century, many reform movements have occurred to make this country better, however, at first people struggled to let the word out due to judgements from opposing beings. Many subjects have happened throughout history involving women declaring equality to have the same privileges as men did. Although other reform movements were well supported throughout the nation by citizens, Rights for Women is the most impacted reformed movements that evolved throughout history and is still in our society today since women are still fighting for equal opportunities as men.

The Age of Reform began when many women reacted to the conditions and inequalities of life in the 1820s. Women played a prominent role in the Religious and Reform Movements for many reasons. The evangelical teachings of the church about female worth struck deep in the hearts of many, and pushed them to bring their families back to God (Herrera).
