<div dir="ltr">I always make sure to read the required number of books to all students-5 Monarch books and 4 Bluestems. Despite seeing students every two weeks instead of weekly, I went well over that number with all my K-3 students and read 5 of the 6 picture books on the Bluestem list with all my 4-5 students. <div><br></div><div>After reviewing the books, I am using the Google form with my 2-5 students. With my K-1 students who I am seeing in person, I have laminated copies of the sheet with all the book covers and have the students circle their favorite with their dry erase markers. I count up the votes, and erase and sanitize the copies for use the next day. For my K-! remote students, I had a copy of the book covers with numbers on it and the students could tell me the number of the book, the title, or describe their favorite book in some way.<div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><br><div>Christine Cahill</div><div>Teacher/Librarian</div><div>Carrie Busey Elementary School</div><div>304 Prairie Rose Lane</div><div>Savoy, IL 61874</div><div>217-351-3811</div><div><a href="mailto:cahillch@u4sd.org" target="_blank">cahillch@u4sd.org</a></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Mar 2, 2021 at 11:34 AM Emily Meszaros via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Can anyone share best practices for voting?
