My Students

My students are bright and inquisitive fifth graders in a small, rural town outside Portland, Oregon. Our 4-6 school feeds into one middle school and a single high school. The fifth-grade team works together to foster a warm and welcoming environment where students are taught empathy, acceptance, and kindness. My students are building their educational foundation.

Many of the jobs my students will fill do not exist today; they will need an array of skills.

We are empowering these students to create, to disrupt, and to enter a swiftly changing world.

My Project

Graphic novels provide an exciting reading experience for many readers. They are a great way to reach readers who are not quite ready for traditional novels due to reading struggles or lack of interest. Graphic novels provide graphics to aid in comprehension while keeping the reader highly interested.

Often, especially for reluctant readers, graphic novels add the extra support kids need to help them through a text.

They tend to be particularly captivating for kids, and the combination of text and pictures provides context for stories that they may otherwise not completely understand. Graphic novels will increase engagement and interest in reading for my 5th graders.
