Third through fifth graders from our school compete annually in the district's Battle of the Books. The questions for the competition come from the 3rd-5th grade SSYRA books.
The teams consist of five students from each grade level; 3rd, 4th and 5th. Selection information will come out in January with the competition being held in May.

You have access to all of them, but the two recommended databases are Kids InfoBits (elementary) and Research In Context (upper elementary/middle school). You will need a password to access the databases. The password is sunshine. The resource is also available through the Core with your child's login.
