Teens recommend books to other teens, offering a surefire way to promote books and reading.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFinding the right book for each student is almost impossible if you serve several hundred students, as most school librarians do. \u003ci\u003eRead It Forward\u003c\/i\u003e offers an innovative way around that problem: a program that lets librarians saturate the school with a title that encourages middle school students to read for pleasure. As an added bonus, Read It Forward (RIF) creates learning opportunities that can be leveraged across the curriculum. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe program presented here is based on the author's experience with a community RIF project that was a collaborative effort among nine middle school librarians from schools with varying needs and socioeconomic levels. This thoroughly practical book takes librarians through the process step by step, offering specific examples of what worked and what didn't, then showing how the process can be extended to almost any book. The author also discusses other aspects of running a successful RIF program--such as getting buy-in from school administrators, the PTA, and department chairs--so that parents and teachers can collaborate in the experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Kay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1598848089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781598848083\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Libraries Unlimited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.18w x 0.36d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2014 pg. 130","brand":"Linda Kay","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47474121539839,"sku":"9781598848083","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_907ed809-fd26-448c-9cca-4535da7bf0c0.jpg?v=1762315050","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/read-it-forward-linda-kay-9781598848083","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
