Battle of the Books
Mariana Gutierrez-Tavarez
A few weeks ago Ms.Tunks started the Battle of the Books group. The Battle of Books meets every week on Monday. Ms.Tunks is really excited about being in charge, and it is her first time being the group sponsor.
"Battle of the books is an after school club where students read books, and on November 8th they will go and compete," Ms.Tunks said.
Ms.Tunks said the "battles" are made up of two competitive and one non-competitive battle. There is a relay race, trivia, and a meeting where students talk to other kids about the books.
Ms. Tunks thinks it's fun and she's really looking forward to it every week.
Kahshia is also liking battle of the books, and she said that she likes to read.
During their meetings, the group discusses books that they are reading and they also read for some of the time.
Kahshia also said, "I like the book I am currently reading, and it was interesting but it's also a bit sad."
It seems like Battle of the Books is going really well, everyone seems to be into it, and they are looking forward to competing.
