WHAT IS THE 1000 BOOK PROGRAM?
It is a reading program for preschool children
and their families whose aims are
  • To have quality literature readily available for
    preschoolers and their families so that each
    child will have heard 1000 stories before he or
    she comes to school
  • To help children develop a lifetime bond with
    reading and books
  • To foster a positive connection between home and
    school

4
WHY DO WE HAVE THIS PROGRAM?
  • Research has shown that the single most
    important activity for building the knowledge
    required for eventual success in reading is
    reading aloud to children. This is especially so
    during the preschool years. (Becoming a Nation
    of Readers, 1984)
  • We, at Craig School, want to help parents promote
    reading in their homes by providing a free and
    easy method of obtaining quality literature.

5
HOW CAN FAMILIES PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROGRAM?
All you have to do to get started is to fill out
the top part of one of the RECORD KEEPING sheets
(you can fill it out tonight-or come to the
library!)
The sheets are BLUE and should be in front of you!
6
Then, select a bag from the wall.
NOTE
You DO NOT have to pick bags in number order!
You can start with 39 if you want!!
7
Then you come here
Record Keeping BLUE Binder
Sign Out
8
Remove the number card for the bag you are taking
out. Print your childs name and the current
date on the card. Place the card back behind the
number which corresponds to the number on the bag
you are borrowing.
9
Heres whats in the bag! There are 10 books in
the main zipper pocket. The back zipper pocket
has the Sign Out Guidelines with a list of the
books (on the back) that are in the bag and a
reading tip.
10
Read and enjoy the books in the bag with your
child at home.
11
Please return the bag within 2 weeks. Check the
book list in the back zipper pocket to be sure
you have collected ALL the books for that bag!!
12
If, by accident, a book becomes misplaced or
damaged, please return the bag to the library.
This will help us promptly repair the damage and
place the bag back into circulation!
13
Before hanging the bag back on the wall, remove
the card from the SIGN OUT box and cross off your
name. Please place the card back into the box in
its proper place. Then hang the bag back on the
wall (in order please!)
14
Next, find your childs RECORD KEEPING sheet in
the BLUE Binder. Write the date you are
returning the bag next to the number that
corresponds with the bag you used. ALSO! Mark off
one of the tally marks towards the incentive (in
numerical order).
15
When you complete a bag, you can mark your
progress with your child at home on the 1000 Book
Kid poster with the stickers we provide.
16
When can you exchange bags?
Any time that the school is open! Weekdays
(usually) from 730 am to 6 pm. In the summer
during weekly library hours.
17
Incentives -THIS IS NEW!!
  • At 25 bags (250 books) - a reading award to use
    as a bookmark
  • At 50 bags (500 books) - a reading pin to wear
