Personal literacy narrative For me learning to write and read English was really complicated. My first language was Spanish. My family at all-time spoke Spanish. Going to school was the same. All my classes were in Spanish so my teachers spoke to me in Spanish. In my opinion this was something that really affected me to be a better English speaker and writer. I wish there was someone who would of guide and tell me step to step what to do but sadly there was not one. As soon as I went to middle

I was only eight years old the summer of going into fourth grade. I had no idea what to expect. I didn’t know if I was going to like it‚ love it

The day after Thanksgiving on November 23‚ 2012 the Davidson’s decided to have a “Thanksday Dinner” where everyone brought leftovers from the day before and we sat around the table and talked. Ashton brought his video camera to document the experience; so he set it on top of the fireplace mantle of the club house we rented.

Moving Moving schools is definitely a challenge for kids since it means they are forced to leave their comfort zone and find a new one. When I was about 9 years old my parents and I moved from Boise to Meridian. It wasn’t necessarily a big move since we still lived in Idaho‚ but it meant I had to change schools.

But for 10 of the 17 years of my life all I was doing was reaching‚ never actually grabbing a hold of whatever it was that I was reaching for. Throughout my childhood‚ I participated in many sports. The first thing I participated in was ballet‚ at the age of 5. At that age‚ I had set the goal for myself
