What is the Battle of the Books? Students read from the Rebecca Caudill Collection and favorite titles chosen by the students. Students read independently and have discussions at lunch. Students later form teams in the Spring and there is a competition with the books they have read. A competition is held between the grade level teams for a building champion. We also have the opportunity to compete with Hawthorn Middle School South.
First initial meeting will be during your scheduled lunch period on Thursday, September 22nd. Bring your lunch and your favorite book. See Mrs. Olsen in the library for details and questions.
You may obtain a pass from Mrs. Olsen to attend the meeting.
