Hello Pia!

You are much more ambitious than I am – I started with the Sweet 16 titles based on checkouts this year! (https://sites.google.com/nhps.net/mbm/home )

I would be interested in doing a multi-school March Book Madness next year.

Count me in!

Subject: [CASL-L] March Madness for Books

Hi everyone!

I am in the process of wrapping up a March Madness book challenge here at Reed Intermediate School - I create brackets for the Top 32 books in our school by looking at stats in Destiny and by eliciting student recommendations, then set up a full bracket and weeks upon weeks of voting via Google Forms...

Every time I mention it to someone in passing, they think it's cool... so, as I wrap up this year's program, I thought I'd see if anyone else would like to jump on board and make it a multi-school thing next year?

I teach grades 5 and 6, so we are talking middle grade fiction... I've attached an image that might give you an idea of the scope.

Let me know or email me directly if you're interested, it might be fun!

:) pia ledina
