Graphic Novel Study To Reach All Students, Making Non-Fiction Engaging
Funded Sep 8, 2018
I cannot even begin to express how grateful I am to know that our students are supported from around the world. Thank you so incredibly much for valuing the future enough to donate to this project. The kids and I are still in utter disbelief that our sucesss and access to valuable resources means so much to each and everyone of you! We promise to make you proud!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Hodges

As I stated above, many of our students are either English language learners or have external factors making reading a difficulty. Our eighth grade team wants to introduce the graphic novel, Persepolis, as our first novel study of the year. Not only will the students be able to connect with the diverse character and circumstances in the story, they will also be able to use the illustrations to help them develop context and understanding. This will enable students at all reading levels to engage in the text and feel confident as readers. When students feel like they can comprehend and relate to the text, they are more likely to want to read. Providing our eighth graders with these novels to kick off the school year will help spark a thirst for reading that will establish the tone and learning environment for the rest of the year!
