If I can find a book trailer on YouTube I use it, but I haven't created them yet. I booktalk different books to each class, so that a class can grab them as soon as I've finished booktalking -- I try to do 7 - 8 books per class. Week after next for example, I'm booktalking to 19 classes, so I've got to pull about 180 books. It's not so bad, because I keep count of which books I've done for each class, so I can rotate them around to a certain degree.<br /><br />Booktalking is tiring work, but it's my favorite part of the job.Paige Y.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09823929357425078374noreply@blogger.com
