My Students

Many of my students struggle with home, family, and personal issues in addition to their learning disabilities. I have a few students that don't live with either parent, they are cared for by other family members or friends. Sometimes there is so much going on in their lives that school is their last priority.

I teach reading to kids that have a hard time reading; I teach writing to kids that struggle to form a complete sentence.

For my project, I want to support them with high interest, low-level books that will help them love, or at least not hate, to read and write about!

My Project

I have chosen a selection of high-interest and graphic novel books for my special education classroom. These books will help make struggling readers want to read. High-interest books can change a student's attitude toward reading, learning, and school.

Books with pictures can support visual learners who are reluctant to read.

Books and reading are the foundation of learning in all areas, so I want to help my students learn to love books!

They will have more success in school and in their communities when their reading improves. The more they read, the more they will want to read!
