My Students

My students are some of the hardest working kids you will meet. They want to learn and succeed. I set the bar high and they are always up for the challenge of meeting it.

They are kind, caring, and compassionate!

They are always willing to help each out and make work fun for everyone!

My Project

New books may be one of the greatest joys in any classroom. My students love having books to pick from that can take them on a wonderful adventure! My students have fallen in love with graphic novels, but I don't have enough in my classroom library.

A love for reading is the best gift anyone can give a child!

Help me inspire students to read by giving them new books! I have found that struggling readers can thrive with graphic novels!They are able to feel that wonderful success you and I do when we finish a book. Graphic novels is a way to enhance reading comprehension while adding to a sense of excitement to a book.
