Battle of the Books Begins
Oregon Battle of the Books is underway with our school contests beginning Monday, Jan. 30th at recesses. The kids are reading like crazy and working hard to memorize titles and authors of 16 books on a reading list. During the battles kids will recall details from the books in a game show format. Participants learn to work as a team, develop a plan and apply strategies so every team member has a role. These battles help determine who can attend the District Battle, held at 91 School on February 16th.
Parent volunteers are still needed to help run several of our battles. The following dates are available: Jan 31, and Feb 2, Feb 6-9 all battles are at 11:30am . Please contact Mrs. Hitchcock if you can help.
Battle of the Books is a program that challenges students to read a selection of novels and compete as a team in answering various questions. The purpose of the Battle of the Books is to motivate students to read, monitor their own comprehension, and become active participants in book discussions. Battle of the Books encourages students to read quality literature on a variety of topics and themes. Books are written at different levels that will both challenge and entertain student. Through Battle of the Books, we strive to promote a love for literature and the important character education goals of teamwork, respect, and good sportsmanship. -
