My Project

My students are avid readers and scrambling for some thrilling reads. My library has some, but they have requested more.

My students want Thrills and Chills!

They have devoured what I have and are asking for more and who am I to deny them!

Murder, Mystery, Mayhem, Missing Persons, and Mystic Beings - all can be found in the pages of these books. My students want to escape the every day to another world and get some mental stimulation and stress relief from getting lost in the pages of a thriller.

Mrs. Goosen
Grades 6-8
