My Students

Every day, I have the privilege of being able to see two dozen smiling students, eager and ready to learn. I teach in an urban school with students from a wide range of backgrounds. This year, we are teaching and learning 100% remotely for at least the first semester, which makes establishing strong connections even more critical.

Each day, we share favorite books and enjoy stories together, and my students beg to read more.

My students check out books by the same authors as our read alouds, or find their own copies to follow along. Despite the challenges that exist in our world today and the difficulties that remote learning can create, my students work hard and truly strive to be the best they can be. They are truly incredible!

My Project

My students are bridging the gap between reading early chapter books and longer, more involved novels. Many of my students were unfamiliar with graphic novels until this year, and they are eager to read as many as they can!

The graphic novels and illustrated chapter books I am requesting have all the elements of great books - relatable characters, engaging illustrations, and hilarious storylines.

My goal for my students is to broaden their horizons as readers, and give them variety in the books available to them.

This project will not only provide access to quality reading material, but will also put books in my students' homes. During this difficult time, students do not have access to our classroom libraries. Building home libraries with lots of wonderful books will help my students grow as readers and learners.
