Graphic Novels Galore

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Keenan's classroom raised $214

This project is fully funded

My Students

I have a bin in my classroom for graphic novels and it always sits empty because my students LOVE reading graphic novels!

I have 32 third grade students.

Our school is a magnet school and students come from all over the city. Each day my students take a foreign language class in addition to their regular academic classes. They work diligently and inspire me by their efforts.

My Project

As a teacher I feel that one of my biggest jobs is to encourage a lover of reading in my students. My class this year loves graphic novels and I need to add more to my classroom library to keep them reading. Graphic novels have a plethora of pictures and are an exciting format to read for my students.

My students need these books to encourage them to read more!

This project will put books right into the hands of students. Your donation will help build a love of reading for 32 wonderful third graders.
