By Alex on March 22nd, 2013
Every Friday, we share a handful of links that we found funny, provocative or just plain cool. We call it In Our Feeds. Have a good weekend!
Sharing quotes, suggesting reading materials and highlighting student work are just a few ways teachers are using Pinterest. See all the ways here with this neat infographic!
This is one way to make reading a map fun! Check out these maps drawn by illustrators and storytellers!
Here is a great initiative that brings books to life in vacant lots in Cleveland. And if putting books into the hands of children wasn’t cool enough, local artists will also help create kids activities inspired by the books!
If you’re like me, you have picked your Hogwarts house (Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff). BUT did you give any thought to what your team would be reading when you aren’t playing Quidditch? Check out these predicted booklists for each Hogwarts house!
Kudos to this spelling QUEEN bee! Twelve year old California native out-spells the judges!
So your bookshelves are probably full, but what about your hands? Here is a neat book holding contest, yes, that’s right, a book holding contest created by the author of Prince of Thorns, Mark Lawrence.
There are some special occasions you will never forget, your graduation, wedding, birth of your child and for us book lovers, getting your first library card. The Chicago Public Library encourages you to send your photos of your first library card to them at: firstcards@chipublib.org
Have a great weekend, everyone!
