During early units in 6th grade we were able to read about the digestive system using the graphic novels. This isn't necessarily one of the students favorite subjects but the humor used while using correct science terms made it easier for most students. Some students even checked out another one from the library on germs that I hadn't requested. Taking turns reading the graphic novels while projected using the document camera let students practice reading aloud. The science in sports series helped students see their vocabulary words in something some of them participate in outside of school. \r\nThe erasable colored pencils are game changing for marking the text and taking notes. Students love being able to do it and not have to worry about making mistakes because they can just erase it.","fullyFundedDate":1757354130509,"projectUrl":"project/science-library/9496126/","projectTitle":"Science Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kessler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6400465_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1714915763867","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6400465"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_57450","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":502,"numTeachers":44,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":22,"percentWhite":21,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":44,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"11.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":63.4,"schoolId":57450,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mead Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mead Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/kansas/wichita-public-schools/mead-middle-school/57450"}
