Reading Olympics Middle School Book List 2023-2024
Description:
The goal of the Reading Olympics is to increase students’ reading for enjoyment. Students collaborate with their teammates to read forty to fifty books that have been selected by a committee of librarians, reading specialists, and classroom teachers. These professionals read the books and write questions, which teams of students answer during the competition. The Olympics are primarily a celebration of reading rather than a contest. All participants are awarded ribbons. Since the teams generate much excitement about this event, the experience is rewarding for everyone involved.
