After Krista interviewing Ashlyn Bankes, a 5-year-old that's gone to preschool for two years now, studies show that she is advanced in her education.
"Did your child benefit from preschool? Would he have done just as well at a caregiver's house? Would your daughter have made the transition to kindergarten as easily without it? Would your grandson have read as quickly had he not gone? Could your niece have developed the same social skills at home?"
This quote from the article is all rhetorical questions. Doing this to her articale let's reader think more without giving them a direct anwser. Many people want an anwser but really the anwsers to these questions vary to each person. I believe this is a great way to engage a reader, it makes someone really interested in what is being said.
Krista likes to put a lot of statistics in her articles. Statistics are numbers of evidence that allow the readers put things into perspective. Krista likes to get the readers very engaged by the way she writes, for example questions. Giving the reader questions makes them focus closely on what is being said.
Some questions I'd like to ask Krista:
1.) Do you think it's really the school letting this 5 year old be advanced or could it just be a gift she has?
2.) Do you think if all kids went to preschool they'd be at the same place as Ashlyn?
3.) How do you get your ideas for writing pieces?
