Re: checking out books

[Nancy Voltmer <voltmer@NETINS.NET>]

  When I worked in elementary I found a way to 'peddle' some of the
non-fiction books. At the beginning of each class, 1 student would give a
report (Book Beat) on a book they had read. It lasted 1-2 minutes and they
told their favorite part. They could also show pictures if they wished. Of
course there was usually a run on this title or others that were similiar
so when they would do non-fiction it was interesting.
  I also would pull out poetry books, space, etc. and read the most
interesting/scary, etc. passage out loud up to the point of what happens
next? Read it and find out. Usually checked out a bunch of those as well.
