Battle of the Books

“America’s Battle of the Books is a voluntary reading incentive program for students in grades 3-12.   The purpose is simply to encourage students to read good books and have fun while competing with peers.”

We are excited to begin a tradition of Battle of the Books at Spring Canyon Middle School!  Interested students will be part of a team of between 2-5 students.  Each team member will choose 4 to 5 books to read (or more, depending on team size); however, we encourage students to read as many books as they would like from the list.  There are 20 books on the list.  In February 2022, teams will come together for a game show style tournament during school where they will work as a team to answer questions about the books on the list.  (See attached sheet for book list).  Students do not have to read every book on the list; however, the more books each person on the team reads, the better chance they have when answering questions in a battle.
