Recommending books

I have created bookmarks that double as book recommendation slips. I begin the year by asking teachers to recommend a book or two for students, and I slide these bookmarks into the inside cover of books to help motivate students to pick up a new book.

Throughout the year, students begin to write their own recommendations for the bookmarks, and we mark more books with recommendations.

You can get the book marks on my TPT site. Simply fold them to make them 2 sided. I like to laminate them and use wet erase markers to write the recommendations.
