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!
