My Project

My students are amazing and need literature that will capture their curiosity and their diverse interests.

Graphic novels for classical literature and Science Comics for a broad range of student interests and needs will bring classroom choices for literature to new life!

Our classroom has many ages and levels contained in one place and having access to books outside of electronic curriculum or textbooks is so important for them to develop a life-long love of reading. While reading may look different in this generation with so many reading websites, apps, programs, and devices, ultimately, reading is still words that dance together to weave a story that captures our imaginations and prepares us for the many ways we will spend our lifetimes collecting information.

Mrs. Barrett
Grades 9-12
  • Hallsville High School
  • Hallsville, TX
    • More than a third of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 60 students.
