My Students

My students are creative, collaborative learners! They enjoy working in pairs and small groups. My students come from a variety of backgrounds. Some students have lived in our community all their lives, as their parents did before them, some are new to the state, the country, and the American way of life! Many students come from low-income households.

My Project

Students in our 8th grade honors academy have a completely virtual Frankenstein unit focusing on Gris Grimley's Illustrated Frankenstein, but many students really benefit from having books in the hands rather than more online materials.

After a year and a half of online work, students are desperate to return to reading actual books.

This text hooks students for the unit. Please help my students get hands on in English class with some great literature. The illustrations help students visualize the material while reading a rigorous text.

Help us bring Frankenstein's Creature to life in the classroom this year.
