Scholastic school book fair is an exciting reading promotion event. It is organised in a school, for two or more days, along with book related activities for children, parents, and teachers. In schools that value reading, this event is presented in the form of a Book Week. The three outstanding features of a Scholastic school book fair are (a) quality and range of books, (b) child-friendly display, and (c) innovative reading promotion activities.
Scholastic school book fair offers a wide selection of more than 1000 titles, in English, Hindi and regional languages, on a range of subjects. Meant for children of all ages, the books exhibited are not only from Scholastic, but also include titles taken from various Indian and international publishers of repute. To make foreign publications affordable, these are offered at considerably reduced book fair prices.
Books offered by Scholastic School book fair stand out for the topics covered, approach to the subject, language and style of presentation, layout and illustrations. Scholastic publications present a clear explanation of current affairs and contemporary thought, and encourage literary appreciation and expression consistent with the understanding and interests of young people at all levels of learning. These books empower children, and by getting them in the habit of applying their mind, make them creative.
In a Scholastic school book fair, books are classified according to the reading levels and subject areas, and exhibited accordingly, on specially designed display racks. To expose children to the fascinating world of books, first one or two days of the fair are reserved for browsing, and students are invited in groups, class-wise.
To generate reading excitement and to make the process of learning fun, our educational coordinators assist the school to organise interesting and innovative book-related activities. These activities include interaction with authors, and workshops on creative writing, illustrations, science activities, story-telling, and workshops for teachers and parents too. Scholastic school book fair also involves parents as before the event, an attractive, colourful brochure introducing select titles is sent home through children, encouraging parents to participate actively in their reading and learning process.
Scholastic school book fair also strengthens the school library by providing complimentary books.
