My Students

I work with wonderful students from kindergarten to fifth grade in a Title I school. Coming to the library is an experience that students love, and creating lifelong learners and readers is a goal for our school community. The library is a perfect place for students to read, grow, reflect, and imagine! Reading takes us places and students love engaging books and opportunities to grow their brains!

I work in a Title I school where I teach amazing kindergarten to fifth-grade readers and thinkers!

Students often come to school without a backpack or a uniform and I know that home life isn't always the best for my students. I want to give them as many experiences as I can that they may not get otherwise. I also want to provide them with the resources and books that they might not be able to get outside of school.

My Project

Graphic novels are not just fun, they are also relevant and engaging to students! I am trying to get several new fun graphic novels to share with my students. These books are based on old classics like The Witches, Magic Tree House, and the Secret Garden.

I would love to come back after winter break and be able to share these amazing new graphic novels with my students!

I know my students and know how excited they would be to see these titles on our library's bookshelves! There is no better feeling as a librarian to see kids love books. I know these would be loved by many!
