Keeping Track of Books By Casey
|
|
I too have a very extensive classroom library. The method I use to keep track took some time to get set up, but now that it is up and running it works great!First, I typed the title and author of each of my books onto | 2x3 white, sticky, mailing labels. Then I stuck each label to a piece of 2x6 inch construction paper strip. The strip with the book's title on it goes inside the front cover of the book. Next to my classroom library I have a pocket chart with each child's name on each pocket. Before a book can leave the library (or the classroom) the student must put the paper strip into their pocket. It | | is so easy for me to glance at the chart and see who has books out and who doesn't. I limit the amount of stips per pocket to two. Also, I do a "pocket check" every Friday to monitor what is being returned. I had all of my strips laminated for durability. It works great for me!
