My Project

History brought alive! Using graphic novels in an 8th-grade classroom for literature circles can enhance students' learning by engaging them with visual storytelling and promoting critical thinking skills.

The use of graphic novels can help students develop their comprehension skills, promote empathy, and foster a love for reading.

The goal of this project is to improve students' literacy skills while encouraging a positive and enjoyable reading experience.

This group of students is special because they are at an age where they are developing their personal identities and interests, and using graphic novels can provide them with diverse literary experiences that resonate with their unique perspectives.
