Our 4th and 5th graders are so excited about reading the "Oregon Battle of the Books" books! This will be our 3rd year participating in this exciting program. As a Title 1 school we were always looking for ways to encourage our students to become readers, and have found success with OBOB. This past year our school was recognized by the Gresham-Barlow school district for our growth in reading scores. OBOB played an important role in that growth. One of the great things about the OBOB books is that there are interesting choices for all levels of readers. So, many of our 4th and 5th graders are able to access them, regardless of their reading levels. Soon we will build teams and the students will start asking each other questions and preparing for our first battles coming up in late February. Besides just more time in interesting and motivating books, our students are working on developing their higher level thinking skills- the ones that will help them be successful in high school and beyond! In a few weeks we will have a winning team and on March 14th that team will be heading to the regional battles!
