Memories

My earliest memories of reading in elementary school were so great was truly unforgettable. Although having been in elementary school was so long ago, it feels like it was yesterday. I can remember the teacher reading the cat in the hat to my class and, making us green eggs and ham. Along with, remembering the sound of her voice and the smell of the green eggs and ham. We were all sitting in the cafeteria of my private school, with the teacher reading the book while we ate our green eggs and ham. Therefore, the teachers made my first reading experience so memorable it would be impossible to forget. In addition, when I was in the fifth grade my first writing experience was great. I remember they made

    Reflection On Literacy Narrative

    Project #1: Literacy Narrative I remember walking across the lawn from our tiny add on classroom, up the stairs, and into the second grade class. Walking to my assigned desk directly in front of the window, I sat down in front of my best friend. Sometimes, sleepy and tired, I stared at the giant oak tree in our school yard and watching the clouds move. My first experience with writing was in fourth grade.…

    Early Literacy Narrative

    Throughout my entire school career, I have been frustrated at my math classes, but it wasn’t that they were going too fast; it was that they were going too slow. Every opportunity to move ahead I was given, I used. When I was given the chance to move up from Algebra II to pre-calculus, I studied for hours every day up until the day of the test came. “Beep! Beep!…

    What I Learned In My Writing Process

    For eighteen years, I have roamed this earth, and for thirteen of those years I have been able to harness my craft in writing. As I look back on those times, I see how much I have improved. I learned that I despised word count essays and loved creative writing assignments. My literacy journey began in kindergarten where they taught us how to write out the alphabet, my name, and simple sentences. I don’t remember everything that about my time in kindergarten, but I do remember how frustrated I was trying to write out my name.…

    Personal Essay: Growing Up With Reading And Writing

    Growing up with reading and writing has always been a struggle for me. I would was get extra help on my reading and more time to practice than the other kids. I was not only a slow reader, but I also tended to skip over some of the words. I would never finish the text on the timed reading quizzes. I have had teachers, family, and friends striving and encouraging me not to give up on myself.…

    Frog And Toad: A Short Story

    As numerous memories as I have of reading, I have no memory of learning how to read, so I assume I was too young for it to create a lasting impression. However, I vividly remember visiting my grandmother in Washington state when I was between the ages of five and six. We would sit before immense windows that overlooked the house’s yard and read short stories together. Thinking of these times inspires fond memories of reading stories such as Frog and Toad. I think this has an underlying effect I didn’t realize until writing this essay.…

    Memories Of Middle School

    Middle school is the place where you have either the best or even the worst memories. Some could consist of you getting injured in kickball, you kicking the game-winning home run. I in fact have a lot of memories, one in which that I almost spilled Gatorade all my teacher. Some aren't as interesting, but they're still very funny. People look back at memories and laugh, but I laugh as it happens.…

    My Experience At Roberto Meier's Classroom

    The second time I entered Mr. Meier and Mrs. Dickerson’s classroom, I felt excited to see the children again. Although I was unable to come for Halloween, I was prepared to begin asking questions about their costumes and celebrations during lunchtime. I was unable to do this, however, as Mr. Meier suggested I visit a different class during lunch. Beneficially, I was able to experience other classrooms rather than sit with the children while they silently watch a movie.…

    How To Write A College Essay

    It takes a lot of hard work for a person to be able to write, let alone be able to write something that would be deemed spectacular by their peers. While some are born literature prodigies, with the ability to sit down at their desk and type up a beautiful novel like there’s no tomorrow, the rest of the world is either left to endure the long process of working up to such a level or to suffer from a lack of what I like to call “composition inspiration.” For the longest time, I was a member of the latter group, and, until I finally found my creativity stranded deep inside myself, I thought that I was doomed to remain stuck in a mundane limbo. In a past version of me, perhaps five to seven years old with a straight blonde bob that tickled my chin and a smile that lit up a dark classroom, I loved learning about subjects such as math and science, but I had always dreaded writing.…

    Words For The Imagination Analysis

    Words for the Imagination I was having such a hard time trying to figure out my first time reading or writing. It was very difficult to gather my thoughts to think of one experience. The more I thought about it and the countless headaches from thinking so hard; I figured why not try to write about the ones that really meant a lot to me and that helped me out. So here it goes… The first time I started reading and writing would be when I was 4 years old.…

    Essay On Memories Of Reading

    We all have memories of reading, however we each have our own unique experiences. I have many wonderful memories of reading, but unfortunately I vividly remember the negative experience because it hit me the hardest. I went to Riverdale Elementary School, a dry dull red brick school. When I was in first grade, the school was offering tutors, sixth graders, to help the students in the lower grades. The sixth graders specifically helped with reading, and they were trying to pace the students to be proficient or even to an advance level.…

    Reader Reflection Essay

    My initial experience with being a reader began with a Dr. Seuss book when I was a very young boy, a colorful book with walking-talking cats and dogs, treehouses, and a party. I am not incredibly confident that I indeed am able of correctly recalling the details of the book that got read to me or by me when no one else would just about every day for what might have been a whole year or just a few short months of obsession, either way the memory of reading that Dr. Seuss book stuck in such a way that it is my first recalled memory of being an active reader, of thinking about and considering the content and characters of a book. This book and many others from those early days were the catalysts that founded my later passion for literature. My…

    Comparison Of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows

    Ever since I was able to read I’ve always had a knack for it. I enjoyed the feel of the pages and the stimulation the text gave me. When I read I felt so smart because I understood what the story was saying on the first try, I could read through a book that was assigned for the week in less than an hour. It fueled my ideas for drawing as well as storytelling. Every picture is worth a thousand words so I would draw something and write down what it was about as if I was illustrating for my own novel.…

    Personal Narrative-Original Word Boy

    My last day at Hobgoblin Middle School was a slow tiptoe sort of Friday like honey dribbling out of a tiny spout. It was hard to pay attention when my math teacher Ms Margaret Wee-Wee—dressed in her usual head to toe black—squawked like a raggedy jack jawed raven in the same monotone, about the same boring subject, in the same space day after day. “I’m sure some of you may loathe our classroom lectures, however as you have probably noticed, I am not as young as I used to be.” She paused to reach up and nudged her cat eye reading glasses up the bridge of her own nose. “Oh we noticed you pretentious shrew.”…

    My Personal Education Experience

    My first education experience was recalled by my grandmother: the first day of school stating that I came home extremely upset and crying. When she was able to discover what it was, everyone found it comical. I was upset because on the first day of kindergarten all we had done was color and write our names. They had not taught me to read on the first day. I felt they had not done their job, and that I was never going to read because of…
