My Project

Help!! My kids need more inspiration to put down technology and pick up a book to read. Reading is so important in life and it is so valuable and needs to be encouraged in classrooms as much as possible.

My students need to find that interest in reading by having opportunities to choose from a variety of literature that will provide a much-needed spark that will ignite a love for reading.

Graphic novels will help. My kids LOVE them and tend to choose that type of book every time. The more they fall in love with reading, the more it will become a life-long love not just a part of a classroom assignment.

Please help with my classroom library which will give my students more choices that will engage them in literacy.
