March Madness: Tournament of Books
Let's Get Ready to Rumble, Saints!!
The Battle
The Tournament of Books is a voluntary reading incentive program for students in grades 3-8. The purpose is simply to encourage students to read good books and have fun while competing with peers.
Like March Madness, we will be selecting our Holy Trinity Catholic School’s favorite books starting with the Sweet 16. Students/staff members will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite book with the hopes of it making the tournament. We will compile the 16 most popular books from the students and staff, and those will be our Sweet 16. Look out for our Sweet 16 bracket next week!
There will be 4 rounds of voting (see dates below). Students participate by reading books from each round of play. Students may count books they have already read. Students are only allowed to vote for match-ups where they have read both books.
Participating students will fill out an entire bracket before the competition begins. They will receive a point for each book they get correct. Top students will get to choose a free book from an upcoming Scholastic order!
