What are you doing with your teams?

Coaches,
What are you currently working on with your Battle of the Books teams?

Here are some great ideas I have heard so far:

1) Keep track of which person is reading which book
(ideally TWO kids will read each book, THREE reading each book is better, FOUR is amazing!)

2) Make flash cards and practice author names and book titles.

3) Make your team banner.

4) Make copies of story summary sheets for each time a student gets a new book. Have kids complete summary sheets as they read and then share with the team.

5) Have each individual keep a notebook with notes taken during reading, then share with your group.

Do you have other ideas? Email me (rbudzynski@universityschools.com) suggestions and I will post them here!
