Battle of the books is a fun way to involve literacy in your classroom. Each month, you pick an author and books by that author. Make a bracket and have each book battle it out until you are down to the final book, which will be the winner! To make it more fun make a voting box to have your students vote for their favorite book! This is a really cool monthly activity because you can integrate it with Social Studies, science, math, and other ELA topics
- Get a cardboard box
- Cut out the bottom of the box so their is a hole (so you can retrieve the votes
- Cut a small slit on the top of the box so students can put their votes in there
- Cover the box in construction paper
- Print off pictures of book covers and laminate (optional) to decorate the outside of the box
- Cut out Battle of the Books with a cricket (if you have one) and laminate (optional) for the top of the box
- Set up a corner to be your voting booth
