Draft Conclusion, Project 3
When rereading all of the Literacy Narratives from Rising Cairn and the descriptions from Alexander/Brandt/Williams, it is very easy to see what defines a victim narrative from a non-victim narrative. I think that the narratives that I have chosen from Rising Cairn are a good example of what a victim narrative really is. I also think that a lot of students over react about their teachers and how they have been treated. Teachers have to deal with a lot of…

When I was writing about my narrative, I talked about my 8th grade teacher that wanted me to write 6 different types of essays through out the year and we had to go talk to her about what we did wrong and what we did right on everyone.
