And then I checked my stats and found that they are always among the highest circulated books in my collection every year. So the books are doing their job, but my students are either not interested in these extrinsic rewards or they find it difficult to turn things in because I am not in each of my two buildings every day. I am definitely inspired to try some of the ideas I am seeing here--regardless of whether I see an increase in prize-claiming--thanks for sharing :)<div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Michelle Glatt</font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Librarian</font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Chiddix and Evans Junior High Schools</font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Bloomington-Normal, IL</font></div></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="mailto:glattml@myunit5.org" target="_blank">glattml@myunit5.org</a><br>309-336-6545</font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Chiddix IMC calendar: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/chiddiximc" style="font-size:12.8px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:12.6667px;color:rgb(17,85,204);text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">http://tinyurl.com/chiddiximc</span></a><span style="font-size:12.6667px;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"> </span></font></div><div style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Evans IMC calendar</span><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.6667px;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">: </span><span style="font-size:12.6667px;text-decoration:underline;color:rgb(17,85,204);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/evansimc" style="font-size:12.8px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">http://tinyurl.com/evansimc</a></span></font></div><div><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">U5JHS Book Trailers </span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><a href="https://tinyurl.com/U5jhsyoutubechannel" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">https://tinyurl.com/U5jhsyoutubechannel</a></span></font><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size:small"><br></font></div><div><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0px"><font size="2" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><em>“It is our belief that levels have no place in classroom libraries, in school libraries, in public libraries, or on report cards.” - </em><a href="http://www.slj.com/2017/10/literacy/fountas-pinnell-say-librarians-guide-readers-interest-not-level/" target="_blank">Fountas and Pinnell Say Librarians Should Guide Readers by Interest, Not Level</a></font></td></tr><tr><td valign="top" style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;padding:0px"><font size="2"><a name="UNIQUE_ID_SafeHtmlFilter_m_-1378026489316683065_B1477062354063" style="color:rgb(34,34,34)"></a></font><div style="text-align:right;margin-top:10px"></div></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div style="font-size:small"><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:10px"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/15153735?utm_medium=reading_link&utm_source=email_signature" style="color:rgb(24,24,24)" target="_blank">Currently Reading</a></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;font-size:10px"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_destination/15153735?utm_medium=cover&utm_source=email_signature" target="_blank"><img width="50" alt="Book Cover" src="https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_cover/15153735" style="margin:10px 0px 5px"></a></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/?utm_medium=gr_logo&utm_source=email_signature" style="border:0px" target="_blank"><img width="16" height="16" alt="Goodreads Logo" src="https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/icons/goodreads_icon_32x32-6c9373254f526f7fdf2980162991a2b3.png" style="vertical-align:middle;margin-right:2px"> </a><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/email_signature_instructions?utm_medium=gyo_link&utm_source=email_signature" style="color:rgb(170,170,170);vertical-align:middle" target="_blank">Get your own email signature</a></blockquote></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
