Motivating students to become wild readers is always one of my top priorities each school year. From ridiculously engaging read-aloud voices to weekly themed shelves, I am willing to pull out all the stops because growing students into readers matters.
Motivating students to become wild readers is always one of my top priorities each school year. From ridiculously engaging read-aloud voices to weekly themed shelves, I am willing to pull out all the stops because growing students into readers matters. One of the easiest ways to achieve student buy-in is peer pressure! Getting students to suggest books to other students immediately validates the recommendation.
This resource includes…
*3 book recommendation templates
*Book Recommendation Checklist (anchor chart)
*Book Recommendation Checklist (for students)

Used as part of World Book Day and created a really lovely display for children to read

My students enjoyed using this activity, writing about books they had read, to share with first grade students who would be coming to second grade. Even a few of my boys, who try hard to write as little as possible, were excited to share about the books they had read, why they enjoyed the book, what they thought was the best part, and one even offered a few other books connected to the same subject.

It’s hard to get kids excited about sharing books, but the kids loved it when other kids read a book they recommended. This made the process much easier.
