Graphic Novels Help Students Love Reading

Help me give my students high interest books that they will love reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Acosta's classroom raised $205

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Graphic novels are a powerful way to get students excited about reading. They’re especially helpful for kids who are still building confidence or don’t yet see themselves as readers. With the right book, I’ve seen even the most hesitant readers get pulled into a story and actually look forward to reading time.

By expanding our classroom collection of graphic novels, I can offer students more choices that match their interests and reading levels.

These high-interest books support comprehension, build vocabulary, and encourage students to stick with a story from beginning to end. Graphic novels are fun, engaging, and a valuable tool for helping students grow as readers. I want to bring in a wide range of titles so that every student can find something they’re excited to read.
