Guess what?!? When eating at Your Pie in Suwanee, I saw an advertisement in the side of the napkin dispenser. It got me to thinking, 'Do our school napkin dispensers have this feature? How could I leverage that into getting my students to read even more?' It turns out that our Cafeteria Manager, Mrs. Mathis, is cool with me having students share their book reviews in the sides of our cafeteria napkin dispensers! So, I pulled typed, book reviews that students had already submitted on Biblionasium, and formatted them to fit. I added a picture of the book cover with the students' name, teacher, and grade. I emailed their teachers to send them down for a photo to share on our school's Twitter feed, #SharonStrong. Fingers crossed more students take the time to write an engaging book review to share with the school! I set up a Biblionasium challenge for Newberry books where students have to read and log 10 of 25 Newberry winning books from 1994 - 2018
