Happy Thursday to my wonderful schools!
I hope that you are all doing well! I wanted to share this opportunity with you. It's NOT technology related but thought I'd share…..
For the past three years I have been a "Book Giver" for World Book Night. As educators, we all know the joy that comes from reading and how it takes you to another world, serves as an escape. Participating in this initiative allows you to pass along that passion for reading to others that may not be into it as much as you are.
Basically, you "apply" to be a giver. Applications started today and include basic information (ie. Demographics, your choices of books that you'd like to give away, and why). There are 35 books that have been chosen for this year. The content of the books ranges from middle aged to adult. No elementary books….sorry! You will choose your top 3 of interest from that list and they will select the 1 that you will pass out. If you are "accepted" you will be provided with a box of 20 paperback books to "give away" on World Book Night (April 23, 2014). You will pick up the books from a location that is convenient for you. There is NO COST associated with this at all. It's just about passing along your passion for reading books! :)
