Taking inspiration from basketball’s iconic March Madness, Millgrove students are participating in their own book-related tournament! Instead of shooting hoops, our students are flexing their reading muscles this month. March Book Madness is a worldwide literacy initiative that pits 16 picture books against each other, similar in format to the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament. During each bracket, two books go up against each other and are then voted on—majority-rule style. Votes are then tallied, and whichever book gets the most votes moves on to the next round. In February students at Millgrove began reading the book contenders with Mrs. Pirie. Voting opens on March 6, and we can’t wait to find out which books make it to the second round!
