My Project

Students are enjoying many graphic novels that are published. Between DogMan, Babysitter's Club, Cat Ninja, there is an opportunity and interest level for all the students. Also, they at times, want to enjoy reading in flexible seating. This gives them an opportunity to be comfortable and have enjoyment for reading at the same time. It also is an incentive when they manifest strong reading stamina. It makes the room colorful and enjoyable. Students are excited to read. When you come into the room, you will see them engaged and excited about the book.
