Paws for Reading Posters Made by Students
I dear library posters.
I honey them so much that when 1 goes missing, I turn into Sherlock Holmes.
I love calculation new posters to our library, and putting posters in new places each schoolhouse year.
So here are some of the posters in our K-iii schoolhouse library. It's non all of them, simply some of the ones I like the best.
Oh yes – our Ira Crumb feelings poster. Not only does it go along with a couple wonderful books we take in our library, information technology'south also interactive. Bonus points for interactive. When I'1000 giving library tours at the get-go of the schoolhouse year I will sometimes bring students past this affiche and enquire them to point out how they are feeling today.
I definitely am lucky – many of my favorite posters are promo items that came with books sent from publishers. This is ane such item.
I love our Niño Wrestles the Earth poster. Illustrated by Yuyi Morales, the color and energy of the fine art makes it a poster I ever beloved putting on the wall (or, in the case of this school twelvemonth, on the end of 1 of our Everybody/Picture Volume shelves. This one is available in the ALA Store (you don't need to be an ALA fellow member to society, but go discounts if yous are).
We've been fortunate to accept some bang-up authors and illustrators visit our school over the years (remember when Katherine Applegate signed a projector?). Aaron Zenz visited a few years back and nosotros saved some of his art for our walls. Here's the Hiccupotamus himself.
This one is also in the ALA store. I'm always excited when we can become a library affiche featuring a popular volume, because it can go a landmark in the library. If a student is looking for Wonder, we point them in the direction of the Wonder poster, and the book is on the shelf below it. Posters as library landmarks = good.
A couple years back, Daniel Miyares put this American print up for sale in his online store. Seemed like a perfectly welcoming slice for the library, so I ordered it ASAP. Information technology was limited edition, and so the print is no longer available, simply if you go on an heart out on illustrators social media, they ofttimes denote new artwork for sale that might be a neat fit for your library.
I've already called this the greatest promo poster in promo poster history. Gene Luen Yang created an ode to the iconic, William Blake-quoting Michael Jordan Wings affiche for his (equally iconic, in my opinion) graphic novel masterpiece, Dragon Hoops. This is the only promo item I've ever blindly emailed the publisher to go my easily on. Do my students get the homage? No. Only I do and it holds a special place in my NBA (National Basketball game Association, not the other NBA) loving heart.
We already talked about how interactive posters go bonus points. This Flora & the Flamingo poster gets bonus points for something different – referencing something that happens in a library. I can't say for sure, simply I call back I picked this upward at an ALA conference years agone (another tip – there are lots of absurd posters upward for grabs at conferences, if you can get them back strop in 1 slice). I love it considering information technology's the perfect thing for the wall in our read aloud area, merely information technology also is special to be because I was on the Caldecott committee that gave an award to this volume (the commencement Caldecott honor or medal winner to contain flaps, I believe).
More artwork from a visiting writer/illustrator! This ane is past Ruth McNally Barshaw. It's smaller, and then it'southward fun to find a little identify for this to get and take students past surprise. This year it's on the end of one of our fiction shelves.
Overnice work by Chronicle and illustrator Mehrdokht Amini on this affiche. It'south one of the few posters in our library that I ever like to put in the aforementioned place – right on the apportionment desk. I love my READ posters, but I also honey pieces similar this, that help create a sense of belonging in the library.
Sometimes you mention a book so many times online that the author notices. That's what happened with Nighttime Ninja past Barbara DeCosta and Ed Young. After multiple posts about how this volume was one of the most popular our library, Barbara DeCosta noticed and sent this affiche. Information technology was very thoughtful of her and I hung information technology with pride in our story area.
Oh, how I appreciate posters that are in unique shapes. Portrait orientation has many uses, but how almost a niggling landscape orientation every now and and so??? This poster, illustrated past Caldecott Honor winner Brendan Wenzel, is just the right size for under our humble book drib slot.
Do you have a favorite in your school library? Let me know in the comments.
