Are these labels editable?
Due to copyright of fonts and images, these labels are not editable. You are not able to make changes.
Suggestions for Use?
Printing the book bin labels on cardstock and hot laminating will give your labels the greatest lifespan. I love to use Glue Dots: Permanent (but be warned they are almost impossible to get off) to attach the labels to bins.
What if I want to book bin labels smaller or larger?
Good for you! In Print Settings you can print the labels two pages at a time (to reduct the size), print at a specific scale, or even enlarge. Note: The intended size is 4'' by 4''. So, if you want to change the size, you are committing to spending time fiddling.
How do I get students to put books in the right bin?
Maybe the need to have a perfectly organized classroom library is something we can let go of this year. I'll take a used and loved library over a pristine library can creates fear "What if I put a book in the wrong spot?" Rather, let's empower students to make thoughtful choices through modeling, collaboration, and trial and error.
Additionally, what happens if there isn't just a single "right" bin for a book? Many books could belong to multiple bins. (For example - science, natural disasters, weather.) Try building time into your monthly classroom schedule to maintain your classroom library as a community. Have students (with your support) clean, cull, organize, and discuss the classroom library book bins each month.
