The Battle of the Books is in full swing. By now, you and your team members should have read at least 15 of the books in order to be ready to compete. Don't worry if you haven't though, there is still time to catch up over the vacation. The first round is set for the middle of May. If your teammates split the remaining books between the six of you, one of you should know the answers to all of the 25 questions.
I'd love to hear what you think about the books you have read so far. If you would like to share your comments, click on comment below and fill out the required information. No posts will be accepted if your name and class are not listed. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
KEEP ON READING!!!!!!!

Hello it's michael.What are the battle of the books

Mrs. Wasserman said...

Hi Michael, the Battle of the Books is a nationwide reading competition. It is our school's first year participating. Students from the 4th and 5th grades selected teams to be on. Together, the teams have to read 25books. In the next couple of weeks, there will be a contest to see which teams can answer the most correct number of questions about the books they have read. Maybe next year you can participate. Thanks for the question.

To all book readers in the world:
there are lots of kinds of books in the world thesis days but one of my favorite type of books are scary mystery books. They scar the bones out of me. And when I like the book a lot, a lot that is when I start to love the book even more. Do you like scary books like me????????
