The 2012 Battle of the Books has begun!
All 4th & 5th grade students are encouraged to participate. A special selection of Battle Books has been chosen to reflect various interests and reading abilities. Students and classes can track their progress in the multi-purpose room. After finishing each book, your student will complete a brief question/answer sheet and submit it in the Battle Envelope available in each classroom.
To participate, students must:
- Read a minimum of 2 Battle Books from the assigned list between January 13 and March 1.
- Submit a question and answer sheet for each book read.
- Have a positive and appropriate attitude.
Parents, to make this a success, your help is needed. Although we have selected books for which we have limited copies at school, there is no way for us to know which books will be the most popular. It may be necessary for you to either utilize the public library system to check out Battle Books or to purchase books(s) for your child's use during the competition. If you have trouble obtaining a book, please have your child talk to their classroom teacher by January 31. We also ask your support at home encouraging your child to participate and to read, read, read!
