"A Modern Profile of Adult Literacy" Response

This article focused on a day in the life of a modern man who designs and installs garden in a suburban town in northern California. As the article discusses this man's day, it goes into detail about the range of skills that this man uses on a daily basis for his work and leisure. After reading this article, it is clear that this individual is highly literate and technology savvy. He uses his skills not only to enhance his business, but also to enhance and enjoy his personal life. This was a very interesting article that proves a strong point about the importance of literacy. It goes to show that no matter what field of work you are in, you are bound to be exposed to a variety of encounters which require you to be a literate individual. This gives me inspiration for becoming the best teacher that I can, and provided students with a solid foundation in order to become a contributing and literate adult for our society.
