Join Yonago Amity's Battle of the Books!
We are excited to announced that this summer Yonago Amity will be hosting a battle of the book event from June 9th until August 10th! Here's how it works:
The Storybook Team with the most players to cross the finish line by Obon will be the winner!
It is our hope that this activity will encourage students to read deeply and demonstrate comprehension in writing during the course of a fun, challenging battle! ~ Leah Sensei
- We will set up a race track on the bulletin board, and each participating student will have an avatar/player piece!
- Students will be assigned a team based on Amity Original Storybooks. Choose from Where is My Mother?, Anna's Rocket, or Eric and Katie's Dream. (These books are also available to purchase as part of our book sale!)
- Each team member will complete a weekly reading assignment and move along the track when they finish, their avatar will get closer to the goal!
- After 5 achievements, students will reach the finish line!
