National Library Week Activity

I know it's a little late, but school is officially out and I might have time to catch up on some blogging!  I repeated my activity from last year called "Guess Who's Reading!".  I photographed volunteer staff with one of their favorite books, with only the top of their head and hands showing, adding the "Guess Who's Reading!" at the top.  I laminated them and posted them around the school with a small number in the corner

Here is the original photo (of me) to which I add the "Guess Who's Reading!".  I hold a contest and if the students guess a certain number of staff correctly, their name is entered into a drawing for a prize.  I then post the names later.  It's been a fun activity, with the students getting really excited and going around with clipboards and discussing who is behind the books.  We celebrate NLW a week later than ALA, as we are testing during the official ALA week.  So it comes at good time when the students could use a fun activity!

 

I got the idea from a blog I follow called "Library Displays" and changed it up a little.
