My Project

In the exhilarating quest of the fifth-grade Battle of the Books competition, books serve as mighty allies, arming students with knowledge, imagination, and strategy. These literary companions not only broaden young minds but also hone critical thinking and teamwork skills essential for victory. Through the pages of diverse genres, students embark on journeys of discovery, forging connections with characters and ideas. With each turn of the page, they sharpen their intellect, preparing to engage in the ultimate battle of wits. In this literary arena, books are not just tools but indispensable weapons, empowering students to conquer challenges and emerge triumphant.

Ms. Mykel Johnson will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 16.
