Writing Project 1: Literacy Narrative 3-4 pages double-spaced
Literacy narratives not only recount past experiences but also interpret and synthesize these moments into meaningful reflections of who you are as a reader, writer, and learner and about identity, education, values, and culture.
They consider questions such as:
Who are you as a reader, a writer, a learner? What are your beliefs and philosophies about reading, writing, and learning? How have reading, writing, and/or learning played a role in your life? How have reading, writing, and/or writing shaped and been shaped by cultural contexts in your life and the larger world?
In this project, you will write a literacy narrative about one of your own experiences with literacy, broadly defined.
As you’ll see in our readings, there are many possible ways to approach your literacy narrative:
working from a significant event (or events), following a chronological pattern, discussing significant people, texts, practices, etc.
Whichever approach you decide to take, your project will probably:
Provide both narrative and synthesized reflection of the experience or practice
Detail a specific experience/event/practice
Be written in the first person
