Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are an interesting group of students that have a myriad of different tastes. Many of them are struggling readers, so it has been a fight to find books they are interested in..

Manga and graphic novels have been an awesome entry for many of my struggling readers and it has them starving to read.

I don't have many graphic novels in my class library so I want to grow that collection. You will help students to grow a love for reading as well.

My Project

These materials will help keep my students engaged and willing to read. Graphic novels are an amazing gateway to regular novels. Even if they are just looking at the pictures, they are engaging with the story.

Many of my fifth graders are on a lower reading level and do not want to be seen with "baby books".

This will at least place a book in their hands and give them the initiative to want to read. I just want more of my students reading and these mainly want books they seem to like and I don't have very many of them.
