Japan to Medieval and the Bookmarks!

The focus on Japan is moving on to the Medieval world. The kids will be publishing books of their own after extensive research on medieval life and religions. The library has some great titles that I pulled to support this in class project. I am hoping to finish this next week.

I also finished the genre bookmarks. This is another way to help the kids grab and go with faced out titles. Plus some of the book covers aren't too self explanatory and this can be another way to engage the students beyond just the cover or inside jacket of the book. Some titles have won awards or cover a specific genre they are focusing on and need a title. 

The photography contest is in full swing. The cutoff for submission is today February 18 at 4PM. I did some die-cuts to help with a display so the students can vote. This so far has been another way to engage with the library and see the school through the eyes of the students. Next week we visit students in class.... will update on Tuesday!
