Teachers will appreciate it too. I like to make my bulletin boards interactive with the students. Usually in the fall I will have students write the title of their favorite book. In January and February I have the students help me build a snowman. Students receive a snowflake, a jigsaw puzzle piece painted white, for each book that they read.
Students really like to see the snowman grow throughout the two months.
Then in April we vote for our favorite books for the Nebraska Golden Sower award and I display the results of the voting. I have tried to use ties for turkey feathers in November. This makes for a wonderful b board, but I need to have a better way for students to earn tail feathers. I would like it to be a whole class award. They get to keep that ticket for library time if they follow all the library rules.
