I also love to read. However, it is really hard for me to find books that interest me. That is why I love to read so much. When I finally find a book that interests me I can’t put it down. Ever since I was little, I have been above grade level for reading. When I was in first grade, I had a fifth grade reading level. That’s another reason it’s hard for me to find books that interest me. If the book I choose is lower than my level then I am unable to read it, because I can’t keep my mind in it. I like to read books that are above my level. It’s hard to be in language arts when I am in more advanced reading levels. I have to search for books in places other than the classroom because my teachers usually don’t have my level books. It kind of …show more content…

I will start out by saying what I want to do in seventh and eighth grade. I want to finish seventh and eighth grade early in homeschooling. I would like to help others. Since I will be homeschooling, I can go out more. I want to go on missions trips, help people with anything they need help with, and I would like to start a business. I want to sell photography and other forms of art in seventh and eighth grade.
During my last year in Highschool I want to use whatever I can to help people. I want to start a program that teaches people about God. I want to start a program that will care for other people’s needs and families. The program will show people that God will always be there, and they will always be able to find someone that loves and cares for them.
After I graduate from highschool, I want to go to college to be a doctor. I want to go to a Christian college. I want to share about God and help people with whatever problems they may have. I want to help kids that don’t have families, or only have one parent. The reason I want to help kids like this is because I know what it feels like. I spent ten years of my life without a mom. I got picked on and made fun of because other people didn’t understand that someone could be without a mom. It was hard. It was scary. I want to help kids so they don’t have to feel bad about having a single parent or being alone without a

My whole life I struggled to understand what made reading enjoyable to people. I struggled to focus on the ideas of books. It wasn't until about a year ago I was given a book to borrow from a friend. I saw this friend as a mentor in my life and she felt I needed to read this book. I put off reading the book as long as possible but when I finally started progressing through the book my opinion had been altered.

Nothing seemed to motivate me to be excited about literacy. However, I started being a part of a small group through my church. Reading bible verses and applying them to real life situations helped me understand what some things truly meant. The bible verse, "Come to me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest," from the book of Matthew, chapter 11, verse 28, explains to go reach out to someone if you need help with anything. Moving on, I got into movies that were made from books and they seemed to help me picture the book better.

Although I embraced reading at an extremely young age and adored books, I often struggled in my younger years only to overcome the difficulties presented alongside reading, ultimately affecting my mentality and success throughout high school. I remember entering the Albion Public Library, the smell of musty pages and vanilla flavored coffee hitting me like a ton of bricks. Once a week, my mom would take my brothers and I to story time while she scoured the

When reading a book in English class at any age… I have never liked it. Growing up I did not like reading. I knew how to do it and I thought that was good enough, I never had a book that I’d still think about certain scenes from the book and actually see something similar happen in real life and be able to know somewhat of what’s going on. When I had read the book Tuesdays with Morrie, at first I was just reading it, but the more into the book we got, as a class, I started understanding it too.

I have always been interested in books, since I was a little kid. I am one of those kids who'd like to play sports, could never sit down for too long, and always energetic. I bought a few books when I was a little kid, but I never finished them. They were always sitting on the bookshelf, where I put them. Sometimes I think I am just a book collector, since I don’t read any of them.

Nerdy, right? The thing about books is that you can lose yourself in a world that wouldn’t normally exist in reality. Knowledge is power. I get uber excited about books, because that is what I love. If I could, I would read books all the time, and I do, just not in book form.

Most people say they are sick and tired of studying or doing the same routines every day with no kind of escape. Reading might be just what they need. It is a perfect balm for a day full of chores. Not to mention, they will gain more knowledge and wisdom every time they finish a new book. The person opening the first page of a book is never the same as the person reaching the last page of a book, even though they are the exact same human being.

Growing up, I didn 't always love to read or to do anything with literature. I used to think that people who loved to read were the super smart students and I would envy them because they got to enjoy reading while I would often struggle with the texts. In Elementary school, I remember we would have to do assessments to see where we were when it came to our reading level and I would dread that day because I always felt like I was reading not at my grade level. However, it wasn’t until I was placed in this program by one of my teachers when my love for reading began to take off. At first, it was weird when the classroom that I was placed with barely had any students but they explained to us that they were there to help excel with our reading.
