PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Our parents were still at work, so my brother watched me after school. One frightful day we walked into our house when a big boom filled the air. Then the lights went out...

I started to cry and my brother said it would be alright. He picked up a flashlight and one of his books and started to read to me.

I remember the soothing sound of his voice and the way he made his voice change tones with each character like my mom does when she reads to me before bed. I am able to pick any book I want from my four-tier bookshelf.

I started to laugh and forget about the horrible storm outside our windows. I finally felt safe and was able to enjoy the book so much that I forgot that my parents were not home.

Literacy shaped the way I feel when I am frightened or frustrated. I find a great book with a cup of coffee in a quiet area and start to read.

The book that changed reading for me at such a young age was "Matilda." When the electricity finally came on we watched the movie "Matilda" and once a year we get together and watch Matilda while eating chocolate cake.

The English language is a way for me to express myself and have communication through text. This is a great way to bridge that language barrier and be understanding. I use my literacy skills everyday as a teacher in my classroom. I want to make literacy fun and exciting

I hope I can one day make an impact like my brother and parents made with me. I want to help one student find their way to a great book that helps them feel safe. To find that one book that makes them smile and has a resounding impact on them years later into adulthood. I am able to read any books I want at home and of course age appropriate books for my students. This week we are starting the "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing."
