Book copies are available in the Grand View library.
This activity is optional. Student participation is not required.
Super Literacy Quiz Bowl is a fast-paced trivia game for 3rd graders based on all of the books from the reading list. Students in the same grade level compete as teams; students will be placed randomly into teams within their class at the event. The event will be held in the PAC on February 12, 2024 from 11:00-noon. A signed registration form is required to participate; forms will be sent home the week of December 10, 2023 and are due to Mrs. Snively by January 26, 2023. Extra forms are available in the library or may be printed HERE.
HELPFUL HINTS
- Start reading! All titles are available at the Grand View library. Picture books stay in the library to be read there. Chapter books will be circulated in a timely manner so everyone gets a chance to read them.
- You may check out books from the public library; or consider purchasing them to keep.
- Take notes. Dedicate a notebook for all your SLQB books. It will be really helpful for review in February. Notes, however, will not be allowed during the competition.
- Keep track of straightforward information such as the name of the author or illustrator. List character names for each book. Jot down sequence and timeline of events. These are the kinds of details that will help you during the game.
- Read everything in the book. This means the supplementary pages, such as the forward and the afterword, that are often included in nonfiction books. The "extra stuff" makes for great SLQB questions!
- January 8, 2024 students practice using online quiz tool during library class visit
- January 26, 2024 sign-up sheets due to Mrs. Snively
- Have fun!
