If you have tried Mock Caldecotts in the past and would like to try a similar concept with your older students AND with non-fiction science books take a look at this website, which has a link to an article in SB&F (Science Books and Films) March/April 2009 (see the lower right side of the window).
http://www.uwlax.edu/murphylibrary/departments/curriculum/stem/mocksb&f.html
Included is information for using the project with older students along with various forms. Unfortunately their link in the article to the Awards is not good but if you go to
http://www.sbfonline.com/Pages/welcomesplash.aspx
and then select SB&F Prizes in the left hand menu you'll get to the winning books.  Be sure to check out the Past Prizes too and see if you have those winners in your collections too!                      (Katie)
