By using these unique fish reading incentive charts, you will be providing motivation and positive reinforcement for your students to read 8 different genres of literature in the time period that you select.
This reading incentive program is divided into eight genres: fantasy, mystery, adventure, science fiction, realistic fiction, historical fiction, nonfiction biography, nonfiction information, and a free choice selection.

I grew up in Florida and I learned how to scuba dive when I was 18. Above is a picture of me diving in Cozumel, Mexico. I have lived in Guam, Hawaii, and Indonesia and while I was in those locations, I had the opportunity to dive in some of the world's most beautiful coral reefs.
I always wanted to create a bulletin board display that would represent the beautiful scenery that I observed living under the ocean. During the summer of 2008, I worked on creating these fish templates and Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts that represent some of the sea life that I became fascinated with while I was scuba diving.
I tried to include sea life that swims and also sea life that you would find along the sand in these fish Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts, so that the finished effect would be a bulletin board display with sea life swimming in the water and sea life along the sand on the bottom of the ocean.
The angel fish, puffer fish, jelly fish, turtle, butterfly fish, clown fish, and sting ray are sea life that would swim in the ocean. The eel, sea snail, and sea snake would be found along the sand at the bottom of the ocean.
To create this effect, you need to use blue bulletin board paper for your background. Then, on the bottom section of your bulletin board, use brown bulletin board paper to create the sand at the bottom of the ocean. Cut the brown paper so that it has little hills on it, and so that your sand is not flat. If you look at the background of the banner that is provided in these sets, it will give you a good idea of how to design your bulletin board's background of a blue ocean and brown sand.
These uniquely shaped Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts contain:
11 Different Black and White Fish Templates
11 Different Color Fish Templates
Student Award Certificate in color and black and white
Matching 5 page bulletin board display banner
Large Dolphin Displays
Large Whale Displays
Fish Bulletin Board Accent Pieces
These Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts will make a colorful ocean bulletin board display that will help you to motivate your students to read a variety of different genres of literature.
By giving each of your students a different fish sticker template, you will have an ocean bulletin board display that contains 11 different types of sea life.
These Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts include 11 different fish templates. Each template takes up the majority of the space on one piece of paper, although a few of these fish are on two pages, and there are two templates that are glued together.
Each fish set contains black and white templates for you to use if you want your students to color their sticker charts themselves. Each fish set also contains two color templates for you to choose from. I have provided a left and right copy of each fish template so that your bulletin board display of these sticker charts will contain fish swimming in both directions.
Below is an example of the Angel Fish Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts in black and white and color templates. To save space on this page, I will only be showing the color templates for the rest of these fish sticker charts.
I personally like to print out the color templates of the fish for my students to use. I think that the color templates make for a very vibrant and eye catching bulletin board display of my students genre reading sticker charts.
I select a variety of different colored fish templates, facing both left and right, and cut them out myself. I write each student's name on a different template and then I laminate all of these Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts. By doing this, later when I take each student's fish chart off of my bulletin board, the chart does not accidentally rip. I also think that it looks impressive to parents to send home these colored laminated fish sticker chart templates when they are completed, so that my students can post them in their bedroom, or on the refrigerator, as a sign of their reading achievement.
After students have completed reading a book in one of the genre categories, I give my students a small sticker that fits inside each box on their charts, and then they go to the bulletin board and place their sticker in the correct genre box.
I let my students choose the order in which they read their books and complete their genre fish reading chart, so all of my students are reading different genres of literature at the same time for their independent reading program.
I realize that not all teachers are able to print out color templates for each of their students, so I have provided black and white templates. You can have your students color their genre fish reading sticker charts themselves using the black and white templates.
In addition to the 11 different fish templates in these two sets, I have designed a matching bulletin board banner, student award certificate, large dolphins, large whales, and matching bulletin board accent pieces.

Genre Reading Fish Bulletin Board Accent Pieces: Do you want to add some colorful accent pieces to your students' fish sticker charts bulletin board display?
This set of matching fish will help you put the finishing touches on your bulletin board display. This set includes 9 fish with the genre titles on them, 14 fish with reading quotes on them that promote reading, and 40 different sized and colored fish templates. You can also use these 40 bulletin board accent pieces for any other ocean theme that you teach during the school year.
Below are 9 different fish that each contain the words of the 9 genres that students need to read to complete their fish sticker charts.
There are 14 different fish with slogans on them that promote reading in this set.
The sea horse says "Dive into a variety of books!" and the moray eel says "Reading a variety of genres is EEL-LECTRIFYING!"
The sea snake says "For goodness SNAKES, read a variety of literature!" and the clown fish says "Which genre do you like reading best?"

As your students are reading these 9 different books and completing their Dive Into Reading Sticker Charts, I would encourage you to have your students respond in writing to some of these books. Many students find traditional one page worksheet response sheets very boring.
For this reason, I created a variety of different types of book report responses for my students to complete after they have read a book. Instead of being bored, my students are excited and engaged when they are completing their book report projects. My students look forward to doing these projects and ask me when they get to do their next project. By combining reading incentive charts and creative book report projects, my students have been very enthusiastic about reading books independently.
If you are looking for some creative ideas for how your students can respond to the books that they have read, please check my web page that is dedicated to unique and one of a kind book report projects and templates.
