My Project

My students enjoy reading. They spend so much time on their laptops doing work, when they are given the option of computer time or reading, they pick reading. Now I have the task of restocking our library.

I had no idea how popular graphic novels were.

Every time I get a request for a new book, it's for a graphic novel. One student read the only Baby-Sitters Club book I had in one day and asked for more. The struggling readers are interested in my books too but I have nothing at their level. This book request contains books for the struggling readers in hope of not discouraging them from reading.
