My previous post today is an example of a way to "Bling your Blog". Last year I started a Shelfari account to post on my school website. I kept this Shelfari bookshelf loaded with my favorite chapter books, along with another bookshelf with picture books, on my website so that my students from K-5 could see what I liked to read. It helped to encourage them to read some of these same great books!
I'm working on adding another bookshelf to the left of this blog (right above "followers"). This is the one that I'm using this year with my 4th grade class. I created a group for my class to keep a list of each of the books that we have read together this year.
If you start an account with Shelfari, you can network with other educators in book clubs. Your students can become part of the discussions and recommend even more great books. If you join, add me! I'd love to share.
