My Project

My class is made up of a variety of readers. Many of my students devour books. It doesn't matter what type of book it is, they just want to read and hear as many stories as possible. My classroom is also made up of reluctant readers, who are unsure of the beauty of getting lost in a story. I want to incorporate more graphic novels into the classroom library that my students have access on a daily basis. These graphic novels will allow both my enthusiastic readers and my budding readers to have the chance to experience amazing stories through the eyes of new characters. Consider taking a chance on my fifth grade class to help encourage reading and build literacy skills!
