How to Take Care of a Book Grade K-1


 * __Anticipatory set:__** LMS tells the students that today we are going to talk about book care, I would like to show you a book that has a lot of problems, it wasnt taken care of. The LMS holds up a book that has been chewed on, spilled on and written in. The LMS asks the kids "What has happened to this book?" Short discussion occurs about what could have happened. "lets see of we can find out what happened and how we can prevent books from looking like this one! "

Standard for the 21st century learner: 1.1.6 Read, view, and listen for information presented in any format in order to make inferences and gather meaning.
 * __Standards:__**

3.2.2 Show social responsibility by particpating actively with others in learnng situations and by contributing questions and ideas during group discussions.


 * __Objective:__** ( The students will demonstrate knowlege of proper care of books ) "Today we are going to learn about book care, there are some things that are not good for books and some things that are good for books. We want to learn how to take care of books because they will last longer and here at the library many children may want to borrow the book after you, so we want to practice good book care!

__**Teaching**:__ This project will take 20 minutes. Materials required: An old torn up book, the digital storybook " The Shelf Elf by Nancy Mims Hopkins " and a smartboard lesson on book care. After the anticpatory set, the students will be viewing the story, " The Shelf Elf." media type="file" key="PhotoStory2elf_1.wmv" width="300" height="300"

After viewing " The Shelf Elf " the students will particpate in a smartboard lesson. The students are asked to look at the pictures on the smartboard and detemine, what is "good" for books and what is "bad" for books. During the smartboard lesson the LMS will discuss each picture and ask the students wether or not it is good for books? or bad for books? The LMS will check that students are following along by asking them, when do we put a circle? and when do we put an "x". The LMS will check for understanding, and ask if anyone does not understand. One by one the students will come up to the smartboard and look at a picture, they will determine to put a cirlce if it is GOOD for books, and an "x" if it is BAD for books. A list of the these rules will be generated my the LMS during the lesson. The LMS will focus on the following book care rules:
 * __Guided Practice:__**

1. Always have clean hands when touching books. 2. Don't eat or drink when using books, things could spill and liquids like juice and water ruin books. 3. Keep books away from pets or younger children, like your baby brother or sister. 4. Turn book pages carefully. 5. Use book markers to hold your place, do not "dog ear" or fold the page to hold your place. 6. Never write in a book. 7. Use shelf markers to hold your place, while looking at a book on the shelves in the library. 8. Keep books neatly on shelves.

__Closure__: The LMS takes out the "old beat up book" Pooor book...... we know how to take care of you now. Each child get a Shelf Elf Book mark with book care rules and the LMS has the children share what they have leaned about book responsibility and book care today.


 * __Evaluation & Reflection__**: The students will be given opportunity to share their knowlege about responsible book care during the discussions and the lesson, accurate student response is how the students will be assessed. The students will reflect upon the experience as they develop their own sense of responsibility towars atking care of books. The student will gain a better dispostion about books and reading along with their new book care rules.

I would also like to submit an "animoto" that I created for Mrs. "M". It was decided that her LMS position was being terminated after ths school season. I felt bad for Mrs. "M" and so as a tribute to her work, and as something she could take with her and maybe use someday... I created this animoto for her.
