1. Paperback book covers
I used to use clear contact paper for an inexpensive paperback cover; now I
purchase the EZ Covers from Kapco. They’re a little pricey, but SUPER
durable, and they’re now available in the Scholastic Rewards catalog, if
you have book fair $$.

> Participant spaces, and Participants will agree on the topic and consume
> approximately 1 hour of public media content in preparation for the
> discussion. Observers will have access to view the structured discussion as
> well as brief overviews of thinkalong.org, other structured discussion
> strategies and the 5 Key Questions of Media Literacy from the Center for
> Media Literacy.

> At the end of the training, educators will be able to:
>
>    - Identify and describe several structured discussion formats
>    compatible with Thinkalong, or other current event activities;
>    - Implement Thinkalong with learners in any setting - home school,
>    classrooms, libraries, summer camps, etc. - and in varied formats;
>    - Better analyze media.
