I was born on the 15th and my mom would always read to me, so I started listening to books really young.
-
In kindergarten we began reading and working on our sight words really early on.
-
I was doing so well in all my reading that they bumped me up to above grade level reading.
-
In the fifth grade we got to pick out favorite books and we got paired with a kindergartner. I read them my favorite book and also helped them read their favorite book.
-
I was scared going into middle school because we were reading things I had never read before and then writing essays on the books.
-
In middle school we began reading Shakespeare, which was my first time reading that ever!
-
I was really shy in middle school (still am) and I did not want to preform a Shakespeare play in front of the whole school, so I told my teacher and tried to explain why I did not want to read the play and she kicked me out!
-
For my Girl Scouts silver award, me and my friends created a book drive to donate books to the kids in a shelter. There were not many books there for the kids to read.
-
I took honors English in high school all four years and worked hard on my reading skills to maintain them.
-
I passed college level English my first semester here at HCC and received an A in the course.
