Week 3: Thing 6


I love the Trading Cards program! What a cool way to get students to share their favorite reads! I created a trading card of a visit to the Ramen Museum in Yokohama, Japan.
Other ideas for school use:
We would use a photo of them reading their book, have them write a review and add the call # along with the title. Then we could display the trading cards around the library/school, make bookmarks, or make actual trading cards they could share with their friends. Another idea that would be a great way to link library skills (such as learning Dewey) is having students take photos of their favorite section in the library and create a trading card to include a description of the section.
It's also a great way to easily assess student work.
