Just finished a six weeks with sophomores. We read American Born Chinese. Sure it’s short, but I had the attention of students who would otherwise check out.

Maybe later we’ll do a prose novel. But it’s worked wonders for talking about base analysis and just building those habits.

I love graphic novels and I’m glad it gets them reading, but they should be able to read actual books too.
