Beginning the Semester with Literacy Introductions.
Myers, Eleanor L.
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v40 n8 p646-47 May 1997
Describes having students in college developmental reading classes recall early memories of reading, writing, listening, or speaking (emphasizing enjoyable recollections), and then share them with the rest of the class. Notes that this experience enabled class members to build connectedness, think about literacy's many forms, and build a community of learners. (SR)
