My Project

This project will inspire my students to fall in love with reading. My goal is to add books into my graphic novel selection and provide a well rounded classroom library for students with a great variety of books. I want to open their eyes to the wonder of where a book can transport them to.

My students thoroughly enjoy graphic novels and it sparks the love of reading in them.

My students are special because they enter their first year of middle school and are given the opportunity to explore genres of literature in my classroom where I can help them read for pure enjoyment.

Grades 6-8
