Through the power of literacy we have been able to create a project. Without literacy we would never have been able to choose a topic, then explore, learn about and share the information. We used books, electronic encyclopedias, the Internet , and a HyperStudio computer-generated report to gather all the information. Literacy allowed us to sort through the information and organize it. We used writing skills to create a complete, useful report called Mount Shasta, A California Active Volcano .
Literacy can bring people together.
It can help people discover how they are alike. It can present opportunities to work on projects together. We wanted to share with others what we have learned from this project, so we have posted it to the Internet. Literacy helps make life more interesting and even exciting. By completing this report, we understand and now appreciate the power of literacy.
