Pondering literacy practices

So I've been focusing a lot on the literacy practices at the corner store project and finding some interesting things. The research team is thinking of these practices as a kind of reading the world in that participants "read the neighborhood" and "read each other". Today I learned that food corps workers favorite past time is to read. Got to set up a lending library in the store. Now that we are posting data results in the store, participants are also reading how they are written. Cool stuff.
