Hi Ms. Anjana,

The suggestions listed here are really good.

In addition I think a competition for class 5-7 for limited students (like the one who like to participate) in which you can give them different story books to read and then ask them to write a summary of what they have read. The best summary wins. Another is to make them write a story in the format where you give them a beginning and ask them to continue with a story of their own..this will increase their imagination and may even trigger their interest to read more..Apart from this keep Dictation competitions for the younger kids. The best way to enhance reading is to make them read out aloud and appreciate the ones who read the best..the others will get motivated.. And don't forget to gift them with some nice books from the "Scholastics" , if it fits your budget...they will certainly be waiting for this
reading week" exercise again the next year.

All the best !

Best Regards,

Pragya

Good evening mam , As you are planning to organize school library week at your school . I have some suggestions regarding it
School Library provides the initial start for the readers for the readers, the basic objectives of the LIBRARY WEEK CELEBRATION aims at arousing interests and urge, motivation among the students towards the library in simple words developing reading habits
• TALKS ON BOOKS,
• STORIES SESSIONS,
• DISPLAY,
• OUTSIDE LIBRARY VISITS,
• READING PROGRAMMES,
• LECTURES & SYMPOSIUMS
• QUIZZES,
• BOOK REVIEW COMPETION
• BOOK COVER COMPETITION ( students are asked to draw a cover of a book of there intrest)
• ESSAYS WRITING COMPETITION
• LIBRARY CLUBS,
• DRAMATIC SHOWS,
• BOOK EXHIBITIONS AND
• EXHIBITIONS OF CHILDREN ART AND HANDICRAFT IN THE LIBRARY

Anjana jee I have certain ideas on which you can work upon , I think you must have to talk to your management and accordingly plan some of the events and programs for the library week celebrations according to your resources…
