Introducing the Next Blog Series

As I set down to write this I am still struggling to pin point an exact moment and experience that were vital to the shaping of my development as a writer, thinker and prospective teacher.  In my academic career I have had many, many wonderful teachers as well as some not so wonderful teachers. There were countless teachers made me love literature, and reading, however, I never thought to myself, “I love to write”.  I have also never thought of myself as much of a writer, but whether that stems from a single event I can’t be sure. I think it will have as much to do with a collection of events and reflection back upon my literary life as a whole and life experiences to this point that will truly be what has shaped me as a writer and prospective educator.

This blog series will include a few of those moments, read and enjoy! I hope this gives you some ideas as you start thinking of your literacy narrative for our next portfolio project.
