2025-2026 Competition
Date: February date TBD
Battle of the Books (B.O.B.) is an extracurricular, competitive reading team sponsored by WEMTA (Wisconsin Educational Media and Technology Association) designed for students in grades 4-6 who LOVE to read and compete.
Practices occur in the Edward Becker Library Media Center from September through February on pre-scheduled dates (averaging twice a month; schedule coming soon).
Participants read all 20 books from the list provided by WEMTA, learn the titles and authors of each book, and are quizzed on their knowledge. The top four students selected by the teacher-coaches will compete virtually against other Wisconsin student teams in the competition in February.
