  2. Display One

  3. “What shall we learn today, Miss Frizzle?” This display utilizes a character and book series the children love, Miss Frizzle and the Adventures of the Magic School Bus by Joanna Cole. The stories told by Miss Frizzle and the children act as a catalyst for more science information exploration. By pairing nonfiction books with the Magic School Bus books, the children are able to investigate further the science concepts covered in that particular story. Also by using the call numbers from the paired books, the children are able to find even more books on the same topic. This display was targeted to all audiences and reading levels.

  4. Display Two

  5. This display capitalizes on the wildly popular Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. It encourages fourth and fifth grade students to learn more about the Greek Gods and Goddesses as well as the monsters they encountered. Several books are displayed and the sign (seen in the next slide) directs the students to the 292 nonfiction section to find even more books on the subject.

  6. Want to know more about the Gods and Goddess or even the monsters Percy meets? Check out these books and others found in the 292 nonfiction section.

  7. Display Three

  8. Positive Behavior System PBS The principal of Heritage Elementary School asked all of the specials teachers to write how the three schoolwide behavior statements applied to expected behavior during each special. Mrs. Drew, the media specialist, Mrs. Baranski, the media assistant, and I collaborated on a list of behaviors to be used in the media center. The display case in the media center had been chosen as the display location for the school’s two PBS awards. I made a display utilizing some old cut outs of children, added signs for them to hold displaying the media center behaviors, and the school’s PBS awards.

  9. Positive Behavior in the Media Center • Have respect for all • I will have respect for all. • I will use a shelf marker. • I will wait my turn. • I will push in my chair. • I will be kind to everyone. • I will talk with a quiet voice. • I will walk in the media center. • Everyone is accountable • I will be accountable. • I will return my books on time. • I will use a shelf marker correctly. • I will take care of the books I • borrow. • I will use a quiet voice. Heritage Elementary School • Show Safe and Responsible Actions • I will show safe and responsible actions. • I will walk in the media center. • I will take care in removing the books from the shelves. • I will take care of the books in the media center. • I will use a quiet voice.

  11. Do you have a sister or brother who “bug” you sometimes?ALL these characters do, too! This display groups together many different “everybody” books that deal with sibling rivalry, something many of the children can relate to. I chose stories that combined funny situations with a lesson about how to love the seemingly unlovable sibling. Each story ended with some show of love and acceptance between the siblings.

  12. A few of the books displayed After causing a family commotion when they fight with each other, the Berenstain cubs learn that sometimes even the best of friends don't get along. Five-year-old Elisa has an older brother and a new baby brother, but her elderly neighbor says the middle is the best, just like the filling in a sandwich. A six-year-old (The Pain) and his eight-year-old sister (The Great One) see each other as troublemakers and the best-loved in the family.

  13. Display Five

  14. Do you like to be surprised Want to know who did it Then MYSTERIES are for you

  15. For this display, I chose books from one of the most popular genres – mysteries. I used bright colors on the display to draw attention to it. I also used short catch phrases. I collected mystery books that were part of a series or whose authors had written many books so that if the child enjoyed the book, he or she could find more like it. This was a two sided display with the separate reading levels on either side. The lower level books faced the “Everybody” section and the higher level books faced the regular “Fiction” section of the media center. Reading Level Below 3.5 Reading Level Above 3.5

  17. Water ,Water Everywhere This display compiles a collection of nonfiction books representing all reading levels. It covers a variety of topics all relating to water: oceans, ocean life, icebergs, the water cycle, and the different phases of water. I chose this display to coordinate with several of the grades’ beginning of the year science units. The grade levels, topics, and correlating objectives are listed below –
