Battle of the Books
If your student loves to read, Battle of the Books is a great way to encourage this
reading, while giving them the opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge. Students in
grades 3 - 6 are divided into teams and each student is asked to read several books for
the team. The books are provided to the students for free, thanks to donations from the
Home and School Association and a school grant. The students read the books on
their own time and the battles take place after school. The teachers who direct the
program - Joey Miller, Mary Redmond and Jill Kwiatkowski - ask questions about the
books during the battles in a quiz bowl format and the students answer the questions
as a team. The program runs from December through March.
