My Students

Our elementary students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects, and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions!

They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow academically.

Each child in my library absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best varies greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group.

My Project

What is TOON Graphics you ask? TOON Graphics introduces great storytelling traditions from around the world.

TOON Graphics are comics and visual narratives that bring the text to life in a way that captures young readers’ imaginations and makes them want to read on and read more.

Making meaning out of reading with the aid of visuals may be the best way to become a lifelong reader, one who knows how to read for fun and for information creates a reader who loves to read. Please help us keep students at BES engaged and reading!
