R.A.P (Restate Answer Prove) Presentation
We are discussing the importance of RAP in classes as opposed to just giving an answer. You can say a lot in less time by restating what your question is and then answering it, or proving it with evidence. Presentations can be very helpful in this area because they allow you to get across what you want to say quickly and clearly, while the students get to see your thoughts on paper and develop their own ideas based on what they see.

Importance of learning English language arts
English language arts (ELA) concepts — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — empower students to become effective communicators, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners. They are the foundation for all other types of learning as students must rely on ELA skills to master content from other subject areas and communicate what they’ve learned.
Strong reading skills can help students make sense of written content, and gather information for further analysis. Writing skills can help students articulate their ideas, construct arguments, and synthesize information. And speaking and listening skills empower students to clearly present their ideas, participate in group discussions, and collaborate with their classmates. This is why teaching English language arts is critically important for student’s success in school and beyond.
Benefits of learning English language arts
