Our Community Impact

How we’re changing the high school reading scene one step at a time.

Elementary School Under the Stars Reading Event

The Leaflit members helped set up and organize
snacks for the Seoul Foreign School Elementary
School annual Reading Under the Stars event,
where all elementary school students bring a book,
a stuffed animal, and their parents for a night to
read under light up stars in the school gym. We
prepared over 200 snacks and helped set up the
gym with lights to ensure an enjoyable experience
for the elementary schoolers!

A printable template for student book reviews, featuring sections for the student's name, book title, author, genre, star rating, and reasons for liking the book. The design resembles a vintage postcard with a stamp and postmark in the upper right corner.

The Leaflit Book Review Card Project

We initiated a book review card system to help high schoolers engage more directly with the books they were reading. We received over 150 student book reviews within two weeks, which we displayed in the front of our high school library with the corresponding book (see image below). We also placed a stack of cards at the front desk of the library for students to write a review whenever they please. So far, have seen a significant increase in student engagement with the displayed books, along with increased numbers of book review card submissions and library book check-outs.
