These are great-big and bold! The inclusion of search terms is terrific to embed online catalog instruction in with genre study--just as it should be!

I love the list of suggested series for the different grades. I may have to adjust in a few years to adapt to common core standards, but it is great to give to students and I love the idea of the challenge.

magbri re: Summer Reading Bingo for First Grade going to Second Grade
Great!
The reason I couldn't find the book Al Pha's Bet was that there isn't a space on the bingo sheet. I would fix these things myself but the sheets are locked.

Library Centers (TpT Seller)
Magbri, the reason the sheets are locked is because the clip art designers require it. They don't want anyone to be able to cut or copy the images without paying the artist for it. I'm not trying to make it difficult for you, just complying with their terms of use. I am working on correcting the title of Al Pha's Bet. You will get an email when it's complete. I'm not able to add a blank line before the parent signature. Although it looks like it would fit, it forces the words onto another page.
Cari
p.s.-I've revised the first to second grade version to add the space in Al Pha's Bet. I don't think it sent an automatic email, but you should be able to download the corrected version now!

magbri re: Summer Reading Bingo for First Grade going to Second Grade
Hi! Who is the author for Alpha's Bet? Also, I wanted to put more space between the list and the parents' signature but I can't. Can you help me, please? I bought K-4 and it's the same on all of them. Thank you!
April 24, 2013
Library Centers (TpT Seller)
The author for Alpha's Bet is Amy Krouse Rosenthal. I am at my state library conference, and don't have my laptop with me. I will take a look at the files and see if there is space to add more room between list and signature when I return home on Sunday.

Hi! I tried to change Frannie K. Stein to Franny but it didn't work. Would you please correct it and I'll download it again. Thank you!
February 27, 2013
Library Centers (TpT Seller)
I will do that tonight. I will be at book fair for 2 more hours, then I'll take care of it. Thanks for letting me know!
Cari
OK, the revised version is now uploaded. You should receive an email from TPT about the update. Thanks again for letting me know about Franny!

themoonran re: Color Sudoku Center
Just a question about the Color Sudoku title on the pages, it's not showing up...maybe because I'm using a mac? I just downloaded this evening, so haven't tried it out on my PC at work. Everything else works fine! Thanks so much for all of the effort that you put into your products!
February 18, 2013
Library Centers (TpT Seller)
Thank you for letting me know about that! I just tried it on my Mac and get the same result. I thought that a pdf file would look the same on every computer! I will try to fix this and re-upload it tonight! You should get an email about the updated version.
Again, thanks for taking the time to let me know!
Cari
p.s.-I just uploaded the revised pdf file!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I'm an elementary school librarian and author of The Centered School Library. I blog about library centers at librarycenters.blogspot.com. Everything that I sell in my TPT store has been tested and refined in my elementary school library with preK through fifth grade students.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I use learning centers (work stations) in my school library. I love the hum of purposeful activity as my students are moving, talking and learning! My library is RARELY quiet!
