Battle of the Books — Congratulations!
CONGRATULATIONS!
Today we had our BATTLE OF THE BOOKS! Students had been reading a selection of 11 books over the last two months, and today was the battle between our six teams!
Ms. D asked a series of questions that begin with, “In what book….” followed by some specific details from one of the eleven books. Then, teams had to guess which book and hold up the correct book sign within five seconds. We have some amazing readers, so it was a tight race! Our teams were: Book Geniuses; Cool Kids; Potato/Potato/Potato; Blanks; Savage & Salty Potatoes; and The Infernos. Congratulations to Cool Kids for winning the top prize!
It seemed everyone had a good time doing this competition, and Ms. D was glad to see it provided great incentive to read a wider selection of books. Maybe we can do this again next year! As a reminder, here are the books we read:
- The Secret of Platform 13
- Wings of Fire
- Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes
- Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH
- Troubletwisters
- A Year in the Life of a Total and Complete Genius
- The Eight Keys
- Island of the Blue Dolphins
- 13 Treasures
- Arthur, The Seeing Stone
- Among the Hidden
Congratulations again to everyone for their participation!
