In this pre-draft of 400-500 words, tell me a story! Like our 4 authors from the “Literacy Narratives” assigned readings, I would like you to tell me about a specific experience, person, or “sponsor” from your literacy development. It’s tempting to try to relate your whole language history – don’t do that! You only have 4-500 words to create an interesting, engaging, detailed narrative for your colleagues to read.

Choose one important experience, person, or “sponsor” from your reading/writing history, and tell us all about it.
Organize your text in a way that you think will make reading a comfortable, comprehensible experience for your audience.
