One of Robert Frost's most famous poems, The Road Not Taken looks at the choices we all face in our lives and the impact of each decision on ourselves and others. Sometimes we may venture down one path, thinking we'll return again to where it diverged but, "as way leads on to way," we often know we'll never come back. In the end, as we reflect we know that, for good or bad, our decision has "made all the difference."This song was written for a high school graduation and its theme of choices and

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.
