Students Making #Shelfies

Students in Ms. Silva's and Ms. Masse's seventh grade English classes have added #shelfie book talks to our GV Library Flipgrid.

What Is a #Shelfie?

A #shelfie is a brief video, in which a reader describes a book he or she enjoyed and tries to drum up viewer interest in that book. The main purpose is to promote your book to interested readers.

See the example I created to recommend the book Hey, Kiddo by Jarrett J. Krosoczka:

Who Can Make a #Shelfie for the GV Library?

Any student or teacher can make a video on our GV Library Flidgrid page. You just need to sign in with your school Google account.

You may also want to watch a few #shelfies just to see what books are popular with GV students.
