I created this template because I was tired of trying to remember which lessons I taught in previous years. This template has allowed me to write down my favorite lessons that I teach year after year. It has been such a help! I hope it helps you as well!

These book fair passes are a great way to know if students are supposed to be shopping at the book fair or if they just snuck in while running an errand for their teacher. Print these book fair passes on cardstock, laminate them, and give them to your teachers during the book fair. I also write the teacher's name on the back (so I can return it if it gets left behind).

This planner is perfect for Librarians. Teacher planners don't typically work for us, so I decided to create my own. Most pages have editable text (or have an editable version).

What's included: Calendar divider ---12 month calendar, month view, not dated Class Lists divider ---Class list template,

This product is a great visual reminder for students on how to read a book's call number. I add this to my slides when we talk about how to find books in the library, as well as have it hanging in several places around the library. There are a 5 posters total in this file. Each poster is a slightly different version, depending on what call numbers you have in your library. The last version is blank so you can totally make it your own. I hope it helps your students as much as it's helped mine!

I like to use this certificate at the end of the year to reward the classes who have returned all of their books. Along with the certificate, I also give each kid in the class a special treat - some kind of candy or other sweet goodness. :) It's a great way to encourage everyone to return their books at the end of the year (or throughout the year, as well)!

I reward my students for returning their book every quarter with this certificate and a bookmark. Since I have been doing this, the number of overdue books has decreased!
