First, thanks to everyone who participated in the CCBC-Net "Girl Stories" discussion during March. Here at the CCBC, the topic inspired the theme of our "CCBC Shorts" webinar for March. (These half-hour online programs are sponsored by the South Central Library System here in Wisconsin, and in March the topic was "Girl Stories: Books for ALL Children Featuring Strong Women and Girls." Archived versions of the CCBC Shorts webinars are available at:
Second, we apologize for falling off the metaphorical wagon regarding CCBC-Net facilitation in March. The topic for the second half of the month, "Reading Aloud: Titles, Tips and Resources," never materialized. So we've pushed it back to the first part of April.
So continue sharing your children's and young adult literature-related announcements for the next few days, and early next week we'll begin the CCBC-Net discussion for the first part of April.
CCBC-Net Topics for April:*
First Half of Month: Reading Aloud: Titles, Tips and Resources.* Among the most common questions we get at the CCBC are suggestions for books to read aloud. It's been 6-1/2 years since we discussed read-alouds on CCBC-Net, so we'll spend the second half of March exploring this topic. We not only want your individual book suggestions but also insight into how you approach selecting books to read-aloud, what kind of advice you offer adults looking for books to share, and resources you turn to for additional suggestions and information.
*Second Half of Month: Poetry Spoken (and Read!) Here.* How do you share and encourage children and teens to read and share poetry? Do you read it aloud in the classroom or library? Do you look for poems to incorporate into story times, discussion groups, or the curriculum? Do you encourage poetry writing along with poetry reading? During the second half of April (which is National Poetry Month), we invite you to share a few lines about using poetry with children and teens.
