Describe an area of literacy acquisition that interests you AND list at least 6 of the Literacy Narratives that might be relevant for your project.
A part of literacy acquisition that interests me is child prodigy stories that indicate some level of a hero complex. I think a lot of children that see themselves as prodigies also have a tendency to prioritize self-glorification rather than acknowledging the system that made them successful.
Relevant Narratives:
- Austin Scaglione – Learning not to hate English
- Sam Michaud – Passion for writing
- Hunter Ellis – Gram, why are you crying
- Abby – The giving tree and me
- Cali Wood – Literacy 1.2.2
- Sarah Manuels – Gaining independence
- Dustin Tripp – North Wayne
- Ashley Levesque – Revising Literacy Narrative
