QR Code Activity

Inigma is a basic app that can make wonderful things happen. When you scan a QR code, you can link to a website, a video, a story, even a book recommendation without having to type in the URL!

Using QR Codes, students will convince us why we should read their favorite books! When you visit the library, you will be able to preview their favorite titles by scanning the QR codes displayed on the shelves! Use an iPad, scan the QR codes, and listen to the recommendations of your friends!

Follow the step by step, “How To”, directions below to create your QR Code.

Step One: Generate a video of you telling about your favorite book or write about your favorite book.

Step Two: Choose a QR Code Generator to create the code.

• qrcode generator
• QR Code Generator (this is my favorite)

Step Three: Paste your writing or the link to your video in the QR Code generator. Create the code. Download and save the QR Code you created.

Step Four: Print the QR Code. Scan the QR Code to make sure it works.

Step Five: Give the QR Code to Ms. Eyer so she can display it in the library!

Have Fun!
