Back to Books - Two Hundred Library Activities to Encourage Reading (Paperback)

In developing your library programs, could you use some help in planning games and activities that will add zest to a visit to the school library? This book was written to fill a need of school librarians and teachers for material to assist them in stimulating an interest in reading for fun. The material includes a few games geared toward teaching library skills. The idea of the book arose from the authors experience as an elementary school librarian. This handbook (with 200 library activities listed) is a collection of new and not-so-new motivational techniques, games, contests, exhibits, bulletin board games, active games and mini-lessons. Comments are given in some instances regarding the childrens reactions to the activity.
