I also love the idea of checking out picture books for your class so you can basically have a revolving library in the classroom (and save money as a teacher). My mom is a retired kindergarten teacher and always was buying books for her classroom. <br /><br />I'll make sure McKenzie sees your comment too!<br /><br />~ MaleaMom2MomEdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289041390238999546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4667195493718347339.post-82340680620944702332016-07-19T20:51:53.102-07:002016-07-19T20:51:53.102-07:00Take a field trip to your public library and sign ...Take a field trip to your public library and sign your child up for a library card, if they still exist! If they don't, get the equivalent. My Mom took me, I took my kids (now college-age). <br /><br />When I taught preschool, I wrapped a box, covered it with clear contact paper and filled it with the limit (20? 25?) of picture books for my class. It saved my personal budget and was always a "treat" because there was so much variety. It was a great way for the kids to have access to "reading" and to learn how to enjoy/take care of books! Had my own kids and the book box idea continued at home -- the only difference was that the boys helped me fill it every other week!<br /><br /><3 (Hi, McKenzie!)<br /><br />Cindy K.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798354576397638369noreply@blogger.com
