I need to grow as an educator and by having the Prize Winning Toon graphics collections for grades 3-5, which offers stories from around the world that have been researched by experts, I can!
I will be teaching 66 students in the areas of ELA and Social Studies for 5th grade. The majority of these students were impacted by the pandemic last year and were online for their entire fourth grade year and half of their third grade year. They have not returned to a brick and mortar classroom since Feb. of 2019, and will begin their transition in the fall of the year of 2021-2022. I am new to the grade level and need to dive into diverse, imaginative, and creative authors to become a better educator who opens all doors and teaches equality and diversity.
My gifted students as well as my other students have not held books in their hands but exposed only to digital ebooks during the pandemic due to being in isolation and social distancing.
I have students that are gifted, at-risk, ELA, special ed, dyslexic, and economically disadvantaged.
My Project
By researching and reading the Toon graphic collection set I will be able to incorporate the titles into my planning and aligning with curriculum. This particular collection includes comics and visual narratives that bring the text to life in a way that captures young readers’ imaginations and makes them want to read on—and read more. I will be able to help my students develop their aesthetic sense when they experience the relationship of text to picture in all its communicative power. Vetted by a team of educational experts, TOON Graphics introduce great storytelling traditions from around the world. I will study this collection and learn how to plan meaningful reading lessons creating visuals and lessons to monitor learning as my students begin their journey this year.
The novels and selections are award winning titles that offer a window into others peoples experiences into reality and imaginary.
