Text-to-self connections are made when the reader connects something in the text to

something that happened in history
something that happened in another text
something the reader has experienced
something the reader has watched or read

im not sure if this is c

The correct answer is C. Something the reader has experienced

Explanation:

In reading, text-to-self connection implies making a connection or relating the ideas and concepts found on a text with own experiences, previous knowledge and in general everything the reader has ever done or lived. This type of connection is personal and differs from text-to-text connection because in this the connection occurs with other texts the reader has read and from text-to-world because in this the reader connects the text with history or events that occur in the world. This implies in text-to-self the reader connects something in the text to something the reader has experienced.

i have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

i do not think they will sing to me

i have read the novel roll of thunder hear my cry by mildred d. taylor.

1. this isn't like any other story i've read or watched because it is about a black family in mississippi right after slavery in the u.s. had become illegal. most of the novels i have read were about slavery. another point is that the author of the novel used symbolism in a way i haven't seen before. for example she uses thunder as something negative meaning something bad will happen. but by the end of the novel, she made thunder a good thing.

2.   one character that changed during the novel was stacey. stacey is the eldest child of the black logan family. around the begging of the novel stacey was avoiding the white boy jeremy simms. he had a dislike for jeremy's family. but at the end of the novel stacey began to like jeremy.

3. the author starts the novel with the problem that the children of the logan family have to avoid the white kid school bus while walking to school.
