Do you πππππ reading?
Are you in Grades 4-8 or in high school?
Do you live in Ontario?
Do you want to help choose books that other kids will want to read?
Then
the Ontario Library Association's
Forest of Reading
has a committee for you!
For the past several years, the Forest of Reading Kid and Teen Committees have brought readers in Grades 4 through 12 together to talk books and produce exceptional summer reading lists for those readers of the Silver Birch (Gr. 3-6), Red Maple (Gr. 7-8) and White Pine (Gr. 9-12) reading programs.
This year the Ontario Library Association's Forest of Reading program is again asking students to apply to be on the 2020 Forest Kid Committee and Forest Teen Committee.
Who can apply?
For the Forest Kid Committee (Silver Birch): Ontario students in Grades 4-6
For the Forest Kid Committee (Red Maple): Ontario students in Grades 7-8
For the Forest Teen Committee: Ontario students in Grades 9-12
What will you do?
Tentatively, the committees will be meeting virtually via video conferencing to select 10-20 titles for a summer reading list. (Check out last year's Kid Committee and Teen Committee reading lists.) Meet online with your committee to share some great Canadian books, connect with other lovers of Canadian books for young people, and compile fantastic lists of recommended titles for summer (or anytime!) reading.
When will you meet?
Meetings will take place at the end of May.
Applications are due April 17, 2020
and are available online here
Details about the program are found at the OLA website
Don't miss this great opportunity
to share your π of Canadian books!
The Forest Kid Committee and Teen Committee are a huge success.
Now it's your chance to become a committee member on the
2020 Forest Kid Committee or Forest Teen Committee
and help your peers find great books to read.
Apply before the April 17th deadline
for your chance
