EVENT LOCATION & DETAILS:
The event will be held at Marple Newtown Senior High School. The date will be TBD.
HOW IT WORKS:
There are 40-45 books on the elementary school list. Students form teams each team is responsible for having collectively read all of the books on the list. Usually, each student reads about 8 of the books over the course of the school year. This enables us to have students, from each team, read each of the books on the list.
Since all of the books on the list have to be read by each team, students frequently have to read books that are not their first choice. Questions need to follow specific guidelines.
More information to come.
It is very important that students do not join Reading Olympics and then drop out before the competition because they have not read the books they committed to reading. This leaves the team without all of the books covered, which is unfair to those who have done their reading.
