Battle Of The Books 2023
Well done to all our pupils who took part in the Battle of the Books competition linked to World Book Day. Through our Accelerated Reader we try to develop a love of books and promote reading for pleasure. As part of this ww organised a ‘Battle Of The Books.’ All the classes P3-P7 were divided into 4 Teams to compete against each other and see which team could reach the most points.
Points were awarded through Accelerated Reader Quizzes for P3-P7 and by the teachers and classroom assistants in Foundation Stage. The 4 groups were The Arrows. The Brains, The Climbers, and the Discoverers.
Team B the Brains were our winners this year with 478 Quizzes passed.
The competition was a brilliant success. Just look at our information below.
During the competition we had:
Total Quizzes – 1,600 Quizzes passed
Total Words Read – 4,000,000 Words Read
Class With Most Quizzes - Mrs Mulholland P4
Pupil with Most Words Read– JW P7
Class With Most Words Read This Week – Mr Lavery P6
We will be rewarding Team A next week with a few special treats. We also rewarded the top 5 readers, who had taken most quizzes, in each class regardless of their teams. It was brilliant to see so many pupils who have been reluctant to take part in Accelerated Reader complete quizzes this week. Lets try to keep it up.
Have a look at our pupils who were top in their classes in the pictures below.
