    My earliest memory of literacy is being in kindergarten. Sitting in front of my teacher listening to her read to the class. From that point on I have been reading anything I can get my hands on, sports-related materials or just world news. I think literacy plays an important part of everyday living. My sister is 10 years older than myself (I am 39) and she is a teacher, so she played a huge role in teaching me the importance of being literate. I can still remember my elementary days when she was

    Danielle Pitch Dr. Whipple ENG 439: Literacy and Technology 13 February 2017 My Techno-Literacy Autobiography Literacy and expression have played major roles in my development as a person.

    Literacy Autobiography In my opinion, literacy is the foundation of education. To be a reader or writer can encompass a broad definition. It can range in meaning to describe a child who is just learning the sounds letters make when joined together to form a word, to a description of a poet, music producer, and so on. My experience with reading and writing began with the love of my mother, and grew from my continual interest and fascination for greater knowledge. Some of the oldest and fondest

Our language has come a long way over the years, and reading has highly impacted the way we live our daily lives. The Greeks used books of mythology to explain how things came to be and pass that knowledge from generation to generation.

    Literacy Autobiography Many people have memories from when they read their first book and how excited they were. They remember everything like the palm of their hand, although I honestly do not recall when I read my first book. I just began to read and loved it. I would read for hours and hours, my parents would take books away from me, because I would not sleep from how much I read. I have read an abundant amount of books, but my all time favorite book is, “To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee

    pronunciation? Well I have! As a student, I have experienced many aspects of reading and writing. I am currently a junior in highschool so I haven’t experienced it all.

    Literacy Autobiography I communicate in many different ways, whether it be visually, orally or electronically. There are a few instances that stand out. First, through the oral and electronic means of communication. During the summers I coach a youth baseball team and I communicate with the players and their parents in many different ways. At practices where I talk and work them how to do specific drills. At games I cheer them on and give them tips to succeed. But, since most of the kids are only

    Literacy Autobiography As a girl growing up around a group of bikers, boys and two parents who listened to eighties hair bands and metal, you wouldn’t think that I read or was read to frequently before starting school. I pursued in reading quite often, actually. When I finally started school, I had the tendency of keeping to myself and staying quiet. There never have been very many friends in the picture of my life. I learned at a young age that there often are going to be cliques, even when you’re

    Literacy Autobiography I can hear my heart pumping faster and faster. With every breath, it pumps a little faster. I count each person ahead of me in my roll. Pam will read paragraph one. Carl has paragraph two and Donna will read paragraph four. That means I will read paragraph five. I go over every word making sure I can pronounce each one correctly. I am not aware of what the others have read. My only concern is not to make a mistake. It is my turn. Yes, I made it. Wow, glad that
