    Personal Narrative: My Writing Process

    My writing process is usually all over the place, I have to be in my room with my door shut, my music on, my fan on, and my television on, weird, I know, but that is what I have to do in order to keep myself concentrated. After I am all situated I begin by writing down different ideas on a couple sheets of paper, listing ways I could support this idea and how it relates to my topic, sometimes when I am stuck I look up sample essays online to help me out of my rut. Once I finally choose an idea I start writing the first things that pop into my head down on another sheet of paper, it usually ends up being a jumbled mess that only I can understand. After all of my ideas are laid out onto the paper I begin placing numbers beside them so I know…

    Personal Narrative: How I Learned To Read

    I don't remember specifics on how I learned to read, but I do remember learning how to read at an early age. My mother was an elementary school teacher and spent a lot of time working with me on my letters and sounds. I remember doing a lot of flashcards with my mom on the different letters and phonemes. I also remember my mom reading to me a lot, especially at night. I would sit in her lap and follow along as she read. As I became a better reader my mom would stop at different words and let me read. I always enjoyed reading with my mom and was excited when I could actually read the words with her.…

    Personal Narrative: My Early Days Of Reading

    Although there is much I can’t recall from my early days of reading, there are some momentous flashbacks. When I was beginning elementary school my parents were very eager to introduce me to doing a great deal of reading, they wanted me to enjoy reading for a while and they succeeded. We lived within walking distance of the public library which allowed us to frequently visit the library to read and check out books. I always remembered the vast shelves of books that seemed like they never had an end. In addition to reading at the library we checked books out to bring home to read, this allowed me to read as much as I wanted to. Correspondent to the amount of reading I did, the more I enjoyed it and improved at reading.…

    Personal Narrative: Overcoming My Writing Barrier

    My writing has been my biggest barrier. To overcome this obstacle, I am using the writing center. Writing webinars have helped me learn strategies to address my grammar and sentence structure problems. I plan to take a writing class at a local college to expand on what I have learned from the writing center. Currently, I am looking for a class that will fit my work schedule and budget. The goal is to improve my writing so I can have my prospectus approved.…

    Personal Narrative: My Passion For Writing

    I remember, when I was younger, that I wasn't fond with the idea of writing. I remember after writing out paragraphs upon paragraphs my hands always hurting and my brain exhausted from all the mental thinking and processing of writing. However, I would have this feeling; this sensation when I would write with thought, with passion and I carved it. However, it was hard to find a place that was felt the same kind of passion that I felt for writing and could help hone my writing. Then, I found out about BISFA that could help me with my writing, but my English teacher, who was supportive in my decision, told me a question all writers should always themselves, Why do you write? I figured that I would have an answer, but it I didn't. However, it…

    Personal Narrative: My Experience With Accelerated Reader

    My experience with Accelerated Reader (AR) is not long, but I started doing ARs when I got to Leilehua in my freshman year. At first, it was difficult for me because I did not understand much English; therefore, when I took my first STAR test, I got a low reading level and I felt disappointed and dumb. The first time I took an AR I failed with a 60%, I was afraid that I would not meet my deadline and it would affect my grade. But somehow Leilehua’s AR system got me into reading culture. With the time I started to improve, getting a higher score, and reading level. Although it sometimes forces me to choose books I do not enjoy reading and puts pressure on me that it could affect my grade. However, AR system motivated me to read, but it is not preparing me for the future. AR should help students be prepared for the after high school life, but it is not completely doing its job. Leilehua should modify AR in order to prepare students to transition to the hallway of life and adulthood.…

    My Literacy-Personal Narrative

    Last year in 6th I had a teacher who taught literacy. She impacted me when I had her. She made me love literacy more than I use to. I learned more about commas, exclamation, and stuff like that. Since I knew what to do, I could probably eventually publish one of my stories. She also had made me motivated to make more stories. I had not made stories like I thought I was when I was in 5th grade. I did not feel motivated like I was in 5th grade. And I used to love making these stories. I did not feel motivated anymore like I use to. I would usually get compliments for making my stories and that motivated me, but I did not have anyone to help me so I did not feel motivated. Until I made my first story that year. I gave it to a lot of people,…

    Personal Narrative: My Writing As A Writer

    Throughout the year, my writing has had significant improvements, compared to where I began. First, I began this semester fairly confident in my writing abilities. I thought that I had a strong grasp on writing concepts that include: transition words, literary devices, proper grammar techniques, correct paper writing format. In contrast, I felt that I began the year with a weak vocabulary, which has always been one of my weaker areas, If I were to rank myself on day one of class, without knowing all of the material we were going to cover, I would rank my writing skills an eight out of ten.…

    Personal Literacy Narrative

    My final project was a remake of my personal literacy narrative. Through this project, there were demonstrations of the many I began to lose interest in my writing. It showed how my high school took me from loving one thing so much and turning it something that is now simply just there. I still believe literature is an important skill that everyone must learn and know, but sometimes there can be many cases that cause you to no longer enjoy something. In my case, the reason for literature no longer being something that amuses me is that there were just too many factors that made writing no longer fun. There were times where I felt that literature no longer helped me be creative or express myself. Anything that involved timing a person on a creative…

    Personal Literacy Narrative Analysis

    In my personal literacy narrative, I have chosen to include the most important literacy sponsors that have had influenced my growth as a reader over the years. I would like to dwell on the positive impact of my parents, books and educational institutions on my personal literacy. It goes without saying that each of the aforementioned factors has had an impact on my development as a literate person to certain extent. At the same time, my interaction with people and books as the literacy sponsors is still of high significance to me now. My literacy sponsors taught me the necessities of life and helped me to become more literate. Thanks to the positive impact of my literacy sponsors, education and self-development…

    My Literacy Narrative

    My memory of my how I became literate is and always will be a part of me that I will never forget. I suppose I heard the sounds around me and connected them with emotions. Crying, I noticed, got a quick response from my parents, and usually some food. My communication development was identical to every other child learning to talk. Listening. But everyone has a story behind their literacy. Mine was one day, when we were driving to the grocery store, with the radio turned on, my jam turned on. It was the ABC’s. This song was unexpected, not only because of its difference in the nature of the regular pop songs, but that it was a new song altogether. Nonetheless, I began to rock along with the catchy tune of the song. I longed for more and demanded it…
