About B.O.B.

About Battle of the Books

What is it?

Battle of the Books (B.O.B.) is a program for 3rd-6th graders. 

Think Spelling Bee Competition, but for books!

Students have a list of 20 books to read throughout the school year and  participate in Book Battles in the Spring.

 

For every book logged, students will earn buttons featuring the book's cover. Students who would like to read the books but do not want to compete can still earn the buttons. Just let us know when you register that you don't want to be placed on a team.

Where do I start?

Sign up for B.O.B. by clicking on the "Sign Up" button below!

 

After you have registered, you can start logging books for your grade level!

How does it work?

Those who sign up AND read/log at least 6 books logged by Dec 1st , 2024 will be placed on a B.O.B. team and be able to participate in the battles that take place in the spring.

 

Those who sign up and read/log less than 6 books can still read, and earn buttons, but will be ineligible to compete in the battles.

What happens at the competition?

Student teams will be asked questions about the books and earn points each time they correctly answer a question with the corresponding book title and author.  

The teams will move on in a Tournament that will end in a Final Book Battle Tournament that will take place in front of their peers

.

There will be one Battle of the Books Finalist Champion Team for each of the 3rd/4th and 5th/6th grade team groups.
