This March/April our students participated in an exciting Picture Book Tournament—and it was a slam dunk for reading!
Students read or listened to two picture books and voted on their favorite in a fun, bracket-style competition. From the Sweet 16 all the way to the Championship Round, our readers were engaged, thoughtful, and enthusiastic about every matchup. They read, they voted, and in the end one book was crowned the 2025 Champion!
Thank you for encouraging reading at home and supporting a joyful learning experience!
Be sure to check out our bulletin board or photo to see the winning book and highlights from the tournament!
