One idea I'm a little too slow with (not sure if I'll get it done this year): I
wanted to create a large "book of thanks" because we use our public library heavily
for interlibrary borrowing of multiple copies, preview before purchase, etc. My
idea was to use foam-core (tag board sizes) and bind together into an oversized
"book"/card and have it go to our four buildings where appreciative staff and
students could sign it. Then I was planning to/will deliver it to the library
during NLW with a plate of homemade goodies or a box of chocolates.
Easier: (I've done this before) just send flowers "from our library to yours"
Easy for at school: Get helium filled balloons and tape to each table in the
room.
Easy grade 1-3 activity: see my "If I ran the ibrary book arts" file on my
webpage/resources/for my library colleagues. (webpage address in signature)
Haven't tried yet, but I have wanted to share these books with gr 3-5 student:
