Reflection

In my point of view, my reading habits weren’t as different as they were as a child. As a child I would just read what I would have to because if I kept on continuing to read I would some reason I would loose my train of thought and end up reading the text over and over until finally I understood what was going on, while I was I child I intended a program called bridges in my elementary school. What bridges was, was that it would help me read and understand what was in the text and help me remember what I read in the text. This program did help me very much; I was able to become a much better reader from what I was before.

During middle school not much changed for me. I would just read what was assigned to me just to barley pass the basics. I would just read what I would have to because if I kept on continuing to read I would some reason I would loose my train of thought and end up reading the text over. It wasn’t until eighth grade when my reading teacher was always on my case of how I was doing in my reading, her name was Mrs. Anderson and because of her I was able to move up from a third grade level reader to a seventh grade reader.

When I entered high school everything changed for me. I enjoyed almost every book I read especially Harry Potter. It seemed to me not reading when I was younger seemed foolish and a was of time. If I were able to go back and change my reading habits I would do it in a heartbeat.
