Teen Read Week Update #6
The end of Teen Read Week is approaching quick, and I hope that it has been a successful week for all of the libraries out there that have been participating. For the last two weeks or so we have been posting a series of ideas for TRW. Librarians from across the country have emailed in the plans for their libraries and they have been posted here. Following is the last of those emails.
Michelle, a Librarian at a Junior High School in IL writes:
“This is what I am putting on the website for my students:
All Week
-Try the daily trivia question (posted at 6:00 a.m.) on Mrs. Glatt’s blog, Mission:READ @ http://cjhsimc.edublogs.org. Write a comment with your answer. All comments will be held until 6:00 p.m. and everyone with correct answer gets in a drawing to win Freshen’s smoothies, shakes, etc.
-Pick up a Halloween coloring sheet in the IMC and enter our “coloring contest.” All entries are due by 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Two “most creative” artists in each grade will win Ben and Jerry’s ice cream pints, to be distributed at lunch on Friday.
-Melancholy Monday
Help us celebrate THE END of the Series of Unfortunate Events. Check out at least one book and get an eyeball tattoo, just like Count Olaf. Enter a drawing to win a copy of
THE END, book 13 (and the last?) in the series; winner announced Tuesday Morning.
-Timer to Read Tuesday
If you are checking out a book in the IMC when our timer rings, you win a free Monical’s personal pizza.
-Weird Wednesday
Come to the IMC at 8:00 a.m. and listen to some strange stories read aloud by Mrs. Glatt.
-Thank Goodness it’s Thursday
Have an overdue book? Turn it in today and the fines will magically disappear.
-Fine Arts Friday
“Coloring” contest winners will be displayed and announced, and winners will get their Ben and Jerry’s.”
Thanks again to everyone who wrote in over the last few weeks with their plans. I want to encourage you to use the comment feature on the posts to let us all know how your programs, events, and promotions went. Good luck to everyone who still has something going on for the last two days of TRW. If you missed out on some of the earlier posts feel free to check out the original post and updates #1, #2, #3, #4, and #5.
