2024-2025 Prairie Battle of the Books Participants

Prairie Elementary's Battle of the Books participants are up for the challenge! Each year, Prairie fourth graders are invited to participate in our WCSD Elementary Battle of the Books. For our Battle, we choose 12 of the titles from the state-wide Battle of the Books, which is organized by the Wisconsin Educational Media and Technology Association (WEMTA) as a way to encourage students to read a range of high-quality literature, including picture books, novels, and nonfiction. These students formed teams to divvy up the reading and will soon be ready to compete to see who can identify the titles and authors based on details from the books.
