Each time attention wanders, a slice comes out of the pie. Everyone knows that organization is a vital part of written work, but many don't realize that it is equally important for reading, listening, and thinking. Students who build a mental framework have hooks on which to hang incoming information and ideas. Students who store concepts by category can retrieve them later and use them handily for further thought. Without organization, this wedge of the pie is liquid instead of solid.
People use language to understand what they hear and read and to express themselves.
When language functions well, human beings can receive and give out ideas, information, and emotions. In reading, they join single words together in phrases, sentences, paragraphs, chapters, and books. Without such knowledge, they can't absorb and digest concepts delivered in words. Nor can they share their thoughts, inspirations, and discoveries. Strong language skills form a big section of the pie.
