More on Thing 6

I said I could go on and on so here I go.

What about some trading cards for favorite books. Kids could make them for their favorite books, write a bit about the book and then give them out to other kids. They could even put the call numbers on their trading cards. What a wonderful way to teach about summarizing as there would only be a small amount of room to write something about the book. This could really be a fun activity that would draw the students in. Then they could print out say, 10 copies, and give them out to friends. The friends could then read the book and they could use the trading cards to write comments on the back and you could post them on a wall in the library, the trading card with the comments on the back, for other students to read. Now we have moved to advertising!
