My Project

My students were so invested in the last graphic novel that we read during class before winter break. The very first day we came back from the winter break, they were begging to read again.

I would like to provide my students with another graphic novel, this time one written in French so that we can improve our vocabulary and reading skills.

The cookies will be a treat for my students to try while they are reading. I like to give my students French foods they may not have heard of before.

Many of my students say they cannot remember the last time they read a whole book. I am so pleased that my students love reading so much now. Hopefully, these new books and French snacks will keep the reading momentum going for the rest of the semester.
