I received some terrific responses to my TARGET of how to promote the library to grades K-7 with an extremely small budget. Thanks to those who provided these great suggestions. Guessing contests for students with no overdue materials- guess the weight of a pumpkin (holiday theme) guess how many fish(crackers) are in the tank guess the mystery book from given clues Activities for Teen Read Week, Read Aloud Week, etc. Have the entire school read the same book or group the grade levels for more appropriate book selections - During a given month, the entire school reads the assigned book - The event ends with a night of activities set up at stations (recycled art, lit circles, etc.) Target new books to students who will read them and share the story with others - then they will want to read the book Do a book talk over the PA - Pose a question and have students place their answer in a drop off box Author of the month Theme of the month Issue book bucks for books read - students exchange the bucks for an item from a treasure chest of pencils, bookmarks, etc. Get Caught Reading- teachers and students are photographed when they are caught reading PTA activities collaboration Karen Carter Teacher Stonewall Jackson Middle School kcarter@hanover.k12.va.us -------------------------------------------------------------------- All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
