Outstanding Display Series: 2

I had never done a "Blind Date with a Book" display.  So the week before Valentine's Day with help from my paraprofessional, we wrapped about 40 books, labeled them with their genre and a homemade book and off I went.  I was so shocked at how many students took a book.  I ran out before I reached all the classrooms.  By the end of the week, we had wrapped over 110 books. 

A comment from a teacher who had a few reluctant readers in her class, "The students were so excited to get a popular book that they didn't have to choose. Sometimes they are too overwhelmed with all the choices. Thanks for doing this."
