On January 26th, Claire competed in the Name That Book competition for 3rd grade. There is a list of 100 books, The librarian reads a few sentences from one of the books and the group has 15 seconds to guess the title of the book. The title has to be exactly how it is written on the list, including the words "a", "an", and "the". There were 8 groups competing in 3rd grade.
As soon as the librarian finished the passage, the girls would huddle together to come up with the answer.
After 10 rounds, Claire's group won for her grade and only missed one of the the 10 questions! They moved on to the school competition last night going against the 2nd place 3rd grade team, two 4th grade teams, and two 5th grade teams. They didn't win but still did a wonderful job! What an accomplishment! Now that they know what it is all about, they can start reading for next year!
We had to surprise Claire with a little congratulations sign when she got home. We are so proud of all of the effort she put in to this competition. It has been so fun watching her get so excited about reading!
