Children’s Book Week

May 10, 2009 by Vikram Goyal

Children’s Book Week starts tomorrow and runs through May 17th.  There are many ways to celebrate books this week with your students.  Here are a few of them-be creative!!

  • Host a book character day.  The students dress up as their favorite book characters and show off their costumes in a school wide book parade!!
  • Decorate each classroom door as a different book cover.  Pick a book that you’ve read as a read aloud this school year!
  • Read books off of the Children’s Choice book list
  • Hold a book drive and donate books from the students to a local homeless shelter
  • Swap books-have each student bring in a book from home and swap with a classmate to get a new read!
  • Check out the official Book Week Website for more ideas and listings of local events.

DIY Shirt Extender – Sewing Pattern

I like having a little extra coverage when I wear leggings, but I could never find a cute top that was just the right length. So I decided to make this Easy Sew Shirt Extender! This is so simple to sew and is an easy sewing project for beginners. It is easy to layer under your shirt or top of choice and I added some lace trim to mine for a fancier look. You can mix and match colors and fabrics to suit your needs!
