In their Engish Language Art's class, eighth grade students will be doing an author study of Avi. Throughout this unit, the students will be using the library media center to learn about booktalks and to create a booktalk of their own. The Teacher-Librarian (T-L) will do oral booktalks with the students, show students some video booktalks available online, play for students several student-made podcastsof booktalks, and show students several booktrailers made by individuals and posted on YouTube. The T-L will provide students with a checklist of items that will be required in their final project. Equipment necessary to complete the project will be available in the media center.
