Based on the reading interest survey completed at the beginning of the year, graphic novels are of high interest in my class. The classroom library is a place where students should go to find books they are passionate about. My classroom is a print rich environment and graphic novels and magazines will only make it more meaningful for my students. Students are able to check out books biweekly- depending on their need. They keep our classroom materials and library books in good condition to ensure our materials will last for years to come. With the new books, my students will have access to age appropriate text with strong picture support. This will allow them to continue practicing foundational skills on high leveled text. Increased motivation has shown to increase reading stamina. With these books, my students will grow as readers!
