Every year, students from Oregon come together to battle their knowledge of books in an OBOB Competition. OBOB stands for Oregon Battle of the Books. Students in third through fifth grade participate in competition where they read 16 books, and then compete in a battle against other elementary schools throughout the state. Many of our students work hard to compete in this competition, and are ready to begin preparation for next year’s battle of the books. Our school library budget does not cover the cost of these books. It is necessary for our library to stock these books in order for our school to participate. This is a great opportunity for our students to read different genres that they would not normally experience. This competition is a great way to challenge students, and encourage low readers to succeed. Through the competition, students are excited to read, and want to improve reading skills. Each year the OBOB list changes so there is a need to purchase the upcoming set of books. Our school library needs these books so our OBOB team members can better prepare for the battle. These books will be available to 560 kids, so all students can enjoy them. We are asking for 2-3 copies of each book. There are 16 titles total, that are included in the OBOB list, and we are in need of 11 titles. When the battle season is complete, these book will be put in book sets, so every teacher can access these books for years to come. The books requested are: The Ark Plan, Clayton Byrd Goes Underground, Fablehaven, Fish in a Tree, Just Dance, My Story of Standing Up for Girls’ Rights, Out of Left Field, Paper Wishes, Riding Freedom, Stef Soto, Taco Queen, and The Wizards of Once.
