Personal Narrative: My Lexile Reading Level

281 Words2 Pages

I think I am a good reader. I think this because my Lexile reading level is 807-957, which I think is pretty high for a 6th grader. By the end of the year I would like to increase my Lexile level to 980-1,000. The way I can achieve this is by reading harder books and having to understand the harder books. My highs of reading are I get to have down time, I get to interact with my characters,and I love the book I am reading right now, “Auggie and Me”, it’s the sequel to my favorite book. I like down time because I get to relax and chill while I’m reading. I interact with my characters by really reading beyond the lines, I learned this with my book because there is more to my book than just the words on the page it’s behind the words that counts. I love the book I am reading because it’s a sequel to my favorite book of all times. …show more content…

My Lexile reading level I think is average for a sixth grader, but I want to be reading eighth grade Lexile level reading books by the end of the year. I also like reading because I like drifting off with my book, it gets me away from life instead of being in society and having to do the work. If I had to chose between reading or doing work I would choose reading because I like reading a lot better.

My lows of reading are that if i read for too long I get a migraine and it seriously

    On most essay topics there are specific requirements that must be followed which can then limit the student’s ability to expressively write and cause them to feel less confident since their writing is restricted. Literacy narratives, however, allows the student to write freely and express themselves more due to the fact there is incorrect answer because afterall it is the writer’s own personal experience. In my particular literacy narrative I spoke how disappointed I was to spell “hoax” as “hoaks” in my elementary school’s annual spelling bee even though I still placed fourth overall. Although that tiny detail is not greatly needed, I put that in my essay anyway because I felt like that was something important to share. When it comes to stricter
