You've Been Virtually Book'd With These Special Books For World Poetry Day and Poetry Month....A Special Program and List I Use Within Our Destiny Discover & Library Each Month!

 

We love celebrating, reading and sharing poetry, and books written in verse, throughout the year in our library.  

There are two special events coming up to celebrate poetry too. 
On March 21, 2024 is World Poetry Day and...

As we get ready to celebrate at our school, I have brought together a set of 18 special books.
Let me show you how I set up this choice board for my school community. 

First, I created the choice board in a Google Slide.  I added the covers of the 18 books I included in the list.

Second, I went to our Destiny Discover and grabbed the links to each book. 

This is easy to do.  You just search for the book, click on the three little dots in the entry
and the drop down menu shown in the image above will appear. 
Click on Share and the link to the book will pop up. That is the url to share in the choice boards. 

I love how I can also download the QR Code.  Isn't that cool? 
Take the copied link and add it to the book cover.  

When every book cover is linked, you are ready to share the choice board. 
Go to File and down to Publish to the web.  
This will give you a link to share with the students and teachers.  
When they click on that published link, the You've Been Virtually Book'd With Books for Poetry Month choice board will pop up. They can then click on each book cover to find them in our Destiny where they can read more about the book, find them in our library and even put them on reserve. 

I am excited about this list of 18 special new books I put together in Titlewave.  In this choice board, you can click on any book cover to view in Titlewave and find the full book list there too.

I hope you enjoy celebrating poetry and these beautiful books written in verse too, friends.
