Better than the Rest
I remember in first grade I really started to stand out in the reading world. I had started to read actual books and just about everyone else was starting to read the books I was reading a year ago. It started to become a bigger deal if a kid was not reading now. I remember one day, my school had our parents take a couple hours off of work so they could come and see us all read in front of the class. I was one of the most literate kids in the class, so I was one of the first to read. Some of the other students and myself were so much better at reading than some of the other kids that we were told to go and sit by the kids that read after us so that we could help them if they did not know a word or got too nervous. It is crazy to think about what I was reading back then compared to what I can read now.
