Die Bibliotheks-Schnitzeljagd ist eine großartige Aktivität für Schüler, um zu lernen, wo sich Bücher in der Bibliothek befinden! Einfach ausschneiden und jedes Buchbild innerhalb des Abschnitts platzieren, wo es hingehört in der Bibliothek. Die Schüler machen ein Häkchen in das Kästchen auf ihren Arbeitsblättern, sobald sie jedes Bild gefunden haben. Dies kann in der Schulbibliothek oder in der öffentlichen Bibliothek verwendet werden, wenn Gruppenbesuche von Schulen stattfinden. Es kann auch in Schulen als lustiges Schnitzeljagd-Spiel während des Bibliotheksbesuchs eingesetzt werden. Bibliothekare können die Arbeitsblätter auch ausdrucken und an der Kasse zur Verfügung stellen, damit die Gönner dies während ihres Besuchs in der Bibliothek tun können.

Free files: No-Shave Sign and Excuse Me Sign In some form of support for No-Shave November, I figure that books here in the library can show their appreciation for a fine mustache... My favorite just may be the Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge book right there in the middle. Here are some other close up shots... Simply put, I designed the signage for "No-Shave November" and "Excuse me, but I 'mustache' you to check out these books." Then I cut lots of different mustaches and found some gentlemanly pictures (oh, the power of a Google image search). The mustaches are simply taped on with a bit of rolled up Scotch tape (not too much). We used it to highlight juvenile biographies, since that's the homework project 'round these parts during this time of year. But the mustaches looked pretty great on some animal books, too. And because I'm so proud of my work, here's a free printable for the "Excuse me" sign! Click for larger version. Enjoy! I hope it inspires your library!
The many different styles and topics of books make them a perfect item for display. The internet and the high street are full of inspiration but the unexpected place full of innovative and creative…
