Battle of the Books
DVEF BATTLE OF THE BOOKS
Battle of the Books is a reading incentive program for students in fifth and sixth grade. Students read books and come together to demonstrate their abilities and test their knowledge of the books they have read. The competitions are lively and academic. Battle of the Books improves reading comprehension, builds vocabulary, and teaches teamwork and good sportsmanship.
Fifth and sixth grade students will be teamed in groups of no more than three (with a maximum of 30 teams per school) to compete and test their knowledge in three exciting school competitions/battles during the school year. There will be three battles throughout the school year. The top team from all three battles will move to district competition.
Please Note: All Battle dates are tentative and subject to change due to unforseen conflicts. Participants, staff and parents will be notified via school announcements and e-mail of any changes.
