My Students

My students are working hard to do school in such a crazy time. They are learning to communicate with me through email, or in Zoom meetings. They are driving up to the school to pick up a physical copy of a textbook when they realize that that is what they need to learn best.

I am so proud of my students as they show up first thing in the morning, still in pajamas, to join my class together on Zoom.

They maintain a sense of humor; they humor me by answering my trivia questions. They send me pictures for my "Pet of the Week" contest. They are good kids who deserve the best I can give them.

My Project

I received some donated novels for a special project about race and diversity earlier this year, but now I need a bigger bookcase to house them. It's a good problem to have.

During my years of teaching, I have noticed that even some reluctant readers will gravitate to graphic novels because of the comic book format; I would like to have some of those novels for my great students who think they have sworn off reading...anything.

When we come back to school this fall, I would like to continue reading silently the first 10 minutes of class. If I have some graphic novels, I know they will reach some of those students who claim to never have read a book.
