New Year Reading Resolutions

Last Updated on December 6, 2017 by Laura

Happy New Year!  Students and teachers will be flooding back to school next week, excited to see what 2016 will bring!  Set the stage for an exciting new year of reading by helping your students make some “Reading Resolutions!”   Make a display of new books and/or some that may have been forgotten and let your students browse to find titles for their “To-Read” list.  If you have time, you can even make some special new displays – Star Wars, other titles recently made into movies, informational texts, series – the possibilities are endless!  With little prep you can get your students thinking about their next “Must-Reads.”

Reading Resolutions Preview

Print these bookmarks on colorful card stock and students can write down the titles and call numbers of 4 fabulous books they want to read in 2016.  They can bring their bookmarks to the library when looking for a new book to checkout.  Watch the buzz spread as students talk about the books they plan to read in the new year!

A Book Tasting is such a fun way to help students explore your shelves and discover books they might otherwise pass right by!

Set out a variety of books, add the menus, table signs, and a little restaurant flair, and let your students start “tasting.” It’s a great beginning-of-the-year activity for getting kids excited about reading AND helping them add some new titles to their reading lists. ❤️

This Book Tasting Kit includes lesson plans for K–5, editable menus, bookmarks for younger students, genre and category table signs, posters, and more.

📚 Help your students discover their next great read!

⭐️ BONUS: It’s also included in my September Library Bundle, where you can save over 20%!

    Have you ever sat through a PD session thinking, " Have you ever sat through a PD session thinking, "This has absolutely nothing to do with my library"?

You're not alone.

That's exactly why I created this Professional Development Bundle for School Librarians. Every session focuses on topics that matter in the elementary library, from advocacy and collaboration to lesson planning and library events.

No generic educator training. Just practical professional learning created by a school librarian, for school librarians. 💜

Take a look at the preview to see what's included! >>>>> https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Professional-Development-for-School-Librarians-The-Complete-BUNDLE-6382067?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=TL%20Complete%20PD%20FB

Everything was updated and expanded last summer, making it easier than ever to learn, reflect, and prepare for a successful year ahead.
