Significant literacy experiences

  • Kindergarden

    First couple weeks into school I learned how to write my name, which was a big thing
  • "The very hungry catepillar"

    One of my first favorite books I was read to by my teacher
  • Corduroy

    Second favorite book which my mom bought me, took that book with me everywhere and had everyone I knew read it.
  • Cursive

    Learned how to write my name in cursive. I was very proud of the fact I could write my name a differnt way/style.
  • Highschool

    First high school english class. Had to make my first speech and ended up getting a C, ever since then I didn't like making speeches.
  • Library

    My uncle took me to the library to check out books, Never could check out a book and if I did I never read it, until he checked out a comic and I decided to check one out to. Since then I read comics after comics
  • Law Classs

    Took a law class in high school, and had to write a paper on any topic I choose. I choose talking about the death penalty and ever since then my main subject would be on that. Debating over death penalties. Made writing papers a tad more interesting.
  • BOOKS

    Senior of high school I went to the book store, bought my first own book called "FIre study" which was fantasy. Fell in love with it and since then I went to the book store every other week (basically) to buy a new book
  • Criminal Justice Class

    Since freshman year hated speeches and tried to avoid it, second year of college I took basically another law class that had another speech. Dreaded evey moment of having to do one so I thought until I went up there to talked about my subject on crimes. Got an A, This gave me the confidence in which I was able to write speeches.
  • Last english class

    My last official enlgish class in college, best teacher. Helped me write better papers, more descriptive. Before I couldn't do it, it would be a struggle but since his class they became more tolerable. Still didn't love it but don't hate it.
