In my library , we have a small collection of audio book playaways. ( Books are read on tape and students can put in ear plugs to listen). I am trying to figure out how to promote the use of them for the upcoming school year. In the past years, these have seen a lot of use. It is one area that I think Middle school students might really get excited about.
We have a parent letter to be sent home before the student is allowed to check out the playaway for the first time, In the form,it details why the parent signature is required. ( Playaways are not cheap to replace).
I am also thinking of having a recess playaway club where once a week ,students could come to the library to listen to a specific book. By the end of the month, students would have listened to a complete boo and maybe get the reading bug ( or want to listen to another type of story)
Does anyone have playaway in their libraries. How to you promote and encourage your students to use them? Please leave your answers or any other comments below. Thanks!
