My Students

My students enter a reading haven every day. During the first twenty minutes of class, my students enjoy time to read. During this time, they read what interests them, they relax, they forget what's going on at home, and they forget (dare I say) their other classes and responsibilities.

My students, ranging from freshmen to seniors, devour books!

They are discouraged from looking at a study guide; they are discouraged from having a pen in their hand. Reading needs to be enjoyable. My students enjoy it because it's for them - and no one else.

My students love this time. Many read a book a week! They take pride in their reading and their ability to encourage others in the class to read what they read.

My Project

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love to give my students books! I'm a big believer in Choice Reading and giving my students access to books is the biggest challenge. Despite all my work to get more and more books in the room, sometimes students are still stubborn and say "you'll never find a book I like."

READING IS READING AND MAGAZINES CAN BE JUST AS EFFECTIVE AS BOOKS!

So I want to provide my students not with "scary" books that are 300+ pages, but with magazines that contain interesting, relevant articles that are short, low-stakes, and non-threatening.

Any help you can provide to get me subscriptions to these magazines is greatly appreciated it!
