Battle of the Books
Battle of the Books 2021 has gone virtual!
Welcome to Battle of the Books for BPS students in fourth and fifth grade! Battle of the Books is a program designed to encourage reading. Fourth and fifth grade students form teams with an adult coach, read from a selected list of six books, and then participate in a contest where they compete with other teams by answering questions based on the books.
Congratulations to our winners!
