My Project

My students are moving on to reading the genre of fantasy. We will be exploring the magic of themes and symbolism. My school media center doesn't have a large collection of the fantasy genre books, so I would like to have books that will hold their interests and keep them reading in my classroom.

Students love to begin a new series, and fantasy novels are just what they need to make them better readers.

Students who read these novels find reading fun and begin to read more for enjoyment! Helping students begin to learn that reading is fun is perfect way to build better readers. Fantasy novels are a gateway to better reading skills for reluctant readers. My students will love getting their hands on these magical stories.
