[ISLMA-Share] Book Tasting/Book Speed Dating

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We just did a Book Tasting with the Monarch Books.  The students came for
their regular library time (K-3).  We had the Library set up like a
restaurant - tablecloths, soft music, flameless candles flickering, vases,
flowers (leftover wedding decor from my daughter!) and a book at each
setting (I had multiple copies of some of the books and used Illinois Reads
books as a fill in) Students had 2 minutes then passed their book.  We
would switch tables once all the books were read.  They LOVED it!!!
