My Project

Students today love their graphic novels. There are so many great graphic novels that exist today that go beyond the basic comic books of my own childhood. These graphic novels engage even my most hesitant readers into reading stories with some amazing characters and themes. Some students look at larger novels and are afraid to tackle them, but see these graphic novels (allowing them to practice on grade level reading skills) and read them cover to cover in a matter of days! I’d love to give students access to these books as they represent the interests and backgrounds of my students! Let’s make reading fun!
