Next week, the book battle committee will be meeting to finalize the questions for this year's competition. This is an interesting evening, where after feeding our faces, we go through all the questions that members have complied, and decide which questions we should choose. Since each member writes between five to seven questions per book, we always have several questions left over. Some of the left over questions are then sent to each school to use for practice.
In addition to the practice questions, beginning February 1, 2010, and every Monday until the competition, I will be posting a new questions here. This will give your team an opportunity to stop by and leave an answer in the form of a comment. All comments will remain hidden. On Friday, I will post the correct answer and a list all the teams who got the correct answer. On the day of the Book Battle the school posting the most winning comments will be recognized. Hopefully, this will be a great way to ready your students for the battle by encouraging more participation.
When you leave a comment, you will have to create a Google account. Make sure you do this using your school's name. Feel free to upload picture a your school mascot, icon, photo, or avatar to represent the school. I will announce the winning post on Tuesday morning, and I will also recognize each school who answered correctly. Remember to include in your answer the book's full title as it appears on the Book Battle List and the author's full name.
