Appropriate grades or age groups: Preschool and Younger Elementary School Middle School
Estimated time to complete activity or implement technique: This could be a summer project
Materials needed (if applicable):
Large piece of drawing paper, markers, and a ruler.
Activity set-up/instructions or description of technique:
Have each child lay down on a piece of paper and trace around their body. Next, use the ruler to make horizontal lines 1" apart all the way from the feet to the head. Every time a reader finishes a book they get to add the title to a line, beginning at the bottom and working their way up.
Other suggestions or comments:
Let the kids give a "star" rating to each book. offer a reward at the end of the project such as a gift certificate to a book store.
