Battle of the Books
(BOB)

    Battle of the Books is a program 4th and 5th grade students at Bethel can participate in.  Every year South Carolina picks 20 top picture, children's, junior and young adult and books that have not yet won awards but are nominated at a top book to read.  Students all over South Carolina vote in March on these books and the winner is announced in May.  Of these 20 books, 10 are chosen by the district for students to read.  In January, students choosing to participate in this program will meet on Monday and Wednesday mornings in teams to answer questions about these books.  The end of March a school competition is held and the winning team will go on to the district competition in April.
