Author Labels
In our Writing Area, we have many baskets of books organized and stored by author.  This helps us to learn about different authors, their styles and genres, and skills of the craft that we can transfer into our own reading and writing.  Here are the some of the labels we use-after you've printed them, cut them apart, mount them on tagboard, and laminate.  Then you can attach them to your bins or baskets to create your own author baskets!
