I don't follow basketball too much, unless it is March. I love March Madness. I especially love an underdog. I decided to use that March Madness idea with my students and get them reading different books. So, I created the March Madness Book Challenge. The students, and some teachers, chose their favorite children's book. I put them all on a bracket. Starting this next week, the books will be presented to the class, two at a time. Then the class will vote on their favorite. That book will move on. We'll continue until we get down to the favorite book of our class. Perhaps we will read it. Anyway, the kids are excited about it. Getting this group of kids excited about anything is hard work and makes me feel like a champion! It is hard work!!
