Throwback Thursday: Buddy Reading Tent!
Hi friends!
Here’s a throwback to August 2012, when I created a buddy reading center in a tent to match my library’s camping theme. This year, if you follow me on Pinterest, you may have seen that I’m working on a superhero theme for this year. So this camping tent will become a bat cave.
Here’s what I said, two years ago…
I want to share one of my new centers with you. You may remember that I have a goal this year of making reading fun for my students, and I have a camping theme in our library. So, what could be better than a TENT to read in!
Now, I was a little worried about having an actual, completely enclosed tent, where you can’t see what’s going on inside. No, thank you. But I found this beach cabana on Amazon for about $35, and the front is completely open. You can also see through the sides.
I haven’t started seeing students yet, but the teachers are ready to crawl in and enjoy a good book. I know that this will help make special library memories for our students!
So, I wonder what you’re doing in your library. How do you make YOUR reading centers special?
p.s.–this tent was a big hit. I can’t wait to set it up again!
