Personal Narrative: My Seventh Grade Literacy Teacher

288 Words2 Pages
A good teacher isn’t always the most common thing in the world. All teachers usually have nothing in common, some things are good, some things can be fixed. Good teachers make learning easy, because they know the right way to teach it. My fifth grade literacy teacher knew how to teach different types of texts by acting them out or making a little graphic organizer to go with it. Through this I was able to use personification, metaphors, hyperbole, and understatements easily with little time put into it. She would show examples in books and showed/told how they made sense to go with the story. She would make activities and long term projects to go with it because that was the only way to make it worth our time. Our sixth grade literacy teacher

On most essay topics there are specific requirements that must be followed which can then limit the student’s ability to expressively write and cause them to feel less confident since their writing is restricted. Literacy narratives, however, allows the student to write freely and express themselves more due to the fact there is incorrect answer because afterall it is the writer’s own personal experience. In my particular literacy narrative I spoke how disappointed I was to spell “hoax” as “hoaks” in my elementary school’s annual spelling bee even though I still placed fourth overall. Although that tiny detail is not greatly needed, I put that in my essay anyway because I felt like that was something important to share. When it comes to stricter

Like most people I too have faced many barriers in education making it hard to grow and learn both in class and in life. Most things you learn are at an early age from your parents and throughout life in school. Many of the information we learn as people come from learning them ourselves. We also change and grow from things we have been through. A lot of times we adapt to our surroundings whether it be a place or the people we’re around learning new things.

A literacy narrative is essentially a personal story of your reading journey, how you became the reader and writer you are to this day. This personal story is important in your journey, not only because it is a statement about who you are, but it explains how you became who you are. As you get older, finding yourself in different groups of people makes it harder to establish yourself as a person in society. For some people, reading and writing is an out, letting them escape into a different reality if they are not all that happy with their actual reality. Other people find themselves to love reading and writing as a child and they grow out of it, becoming more involved with sports and social outings.

My Journey to Literacy As kids we are taught literacy without knowing it. Our parents or teachers have sat down with us and helped us write out our letters, sound out words, and form sentences. We were all given crayons at restaurants and a piece of paper that had fun games, cartoons, and tic tac toe. There are few people who have not learned to read and write, or have learned in a different way or at an older age.
