My students are amazing little humans. In my classroom I have all levels of learners but they have one thing in common.... their amazing attitudes towards learning and their GIANT amounts of effort they are willing to put into their studies! Ninety percent of my class come outside of school hours each week voluntarily to improve their areas of greatest needs. For many of my students, this area is reading! The majority of my students truly struggle with independent reading and it's almost like pulling teeth to get them to pick up a book on their own!
TOON Graphics are amazing, colorful, high-interest novels that even the most reluctant reader will love.
Please help me add these amazing books to my classroom library! I know the appeal graphic novels have on even the most struggling learner. Their great illustrations convince kiddos to read every page. The use of visuals these novels use also ties into many higher level thinking skills and help to meet many state and national standards for fourth grade. My students are very into mythology this year. It is also a difficult genre to teach! These novels would allow them additional practice with so many fourth grade skills including interpreting graphics and how they relate to the text, determining theme, understanding allusions in myths, and understanding and using figurative language. Please help me to help my students dive into independent reading with fun, exciting, interesting TOON Graphics!
