I remember where i was when...

I remember where i was when..

I was like 9 when this happened but we had a porch and my mom thought it was a good idea to put a little kitty pool on there for my friends and i could play in so all my friends came over and we all played in the pool and i couldn't swim and my other brother (Mitchel) knew i couldn't so he pushed my head under and i was splashing and everything to get up and when I did I got out to go tell my dad and when i was doing that I had wet feet and the porch was mad of wood so i got a big splinter in my foot and i had to be rushed to the hospital and my mom carried me when she was pregnant with my little brother (Richard)

I remember where i was when..

I was about 9 or 10 years old when my and my little brother (Jacobe) and my step-mother were at the park near the apartment where they have lived. My brother and I were going down the slide and my little brother went to fast and went down the wrong way and came off the bottom of the slide and broke his arm. He had to get a sling but it was a little to big for him because they didn't have one his size and he was about 5 when this happened.

I remember where i was when..

I was about 12 years old and my older brother (Mitchel) wanted to ride his bike around but his bike was missing one pedal and my step-father and mother told him to to ride it but he did not listen to him so when they were not looking he took the bike and i was already walking around with my friends and i heard him screaming so i went to the noise and we see my brother standing there with blood dripping out of his leg. The pedal had gone through his leg and i had to get my parents and they brought him to the hospital

Amber-- WOW!!

Some people had some serious trouble with that freewrite and you knocked it out of the park! I feel like you probably could have been writing all day long...

I predict that connecting to your life is going to be an effective reading strategy for you. I predict this because you seem to have many memories that are important to you and I think you'll relate to your reading easily using those memories.

We'll see if I'm right!
