[aisle] Genre lesson

[Katherine Contreras]

The form was created by the LA team and I created the placemats as an
alternative way to do a book tasting.  This was part of a rotation between
the classroom and the library (essentially stations with a longer walk).
We were able to have kids do reading conferences in the classroom and then
both LA teachers sent small groups down to do the Genre Scavenger Hunt in
the library for approx. 15 minutes at a time.

You can create a copy of the form from this link
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/18hYQvXQTCQ82bXFigWGibLhIqMQcq5uVC3eJGrhzYoE/copy>
(open
in Preview mode to see the version kids see).

You can print a PDF of the placemats from this link
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wts4r8x5Uq1QRLDYR36a9eqmSGj-Secd/view?usp=sharing>.
The original file is too large and got denied on my first reply.  If you'd
like to edit your own version, you can download it here
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dnZgeKumXXXG_EcSJN8lZMmD-cdHC5l9/view?usp=sharing>,
but I'll warn you, I made it in Pages and I make no apologies for this.  My
love of custom fonts is too strong to always use Google.
