> I introduced the "Genre Passport".
> 
> It involved reading 6 books from different genres for students in grade 2
> and 12 books from different genres for grades 3-5.  The students had to
> give an oral book talk to the rest of the class for each book read.
> 
> It was a huge success. For every completed passport, the kids got to drop
> it in the "Genre Box" and at the end of the year we drew out 2 winners.
> These students got to pick out $100.00 of new books from the Scholastic
> Book Fair that we had at our annual end of year picnic.  Since it was a
> "Buy One Get One Free", it only cost me $100.00 for two kids, who were
> THRILLED!  Their parents were even more thrilled and came with the kids.
> 
> I was working with the students when the new Superintendent came over and
> she was very impressed.
> 
> It was a win-win program all around.  My circulation stats were good and
> didn't fall down despite the terrible schedule I teach.
