All members of our afterschool club were invited to the Battle at the Champaign Public Library. We competed against Garden Hills and Robeson in the first round and went to a tiebreaker in the end. We unfortunately lost in the final death tiebreaker round, so did not get to advance to the finals this year. Ms. Jones and Ms. Johnson attended the competition and had some great ideas for using the books in their classrooms next year to help prepare next year's team even more! Thanks to the competitors and their parents for coming to the Battle and being so prepared!
Booker T Washington will be competing in the Battle of the Books at the Champaign Public Library again this year! (Click here for event info.) Last year we made it to the finals and are hoping to do so again this year. Our group of thirteen 3rd-5th graders are preparing for the Battle by meeting Tuesdays after school to read and discuss the 30 books on which they will be quizzed.
