Welcome Back for our 5th year of OBOB at City View Charter!
The Oregon Battle of the Books, OBOB, is a statewide voluntary reading motivation and comprehension program sponsored by the Oregon Association of School Libraries in conjunction with a Library Services and Technology Act grant. Students in 3rd-12 grade, regardless of ability, are exposed to quality literature representing a variety of literary styles and viewpoints. The mission is to encourage and recognize students who enjoy reading, to broaden reading interests, to increase reading comprehension, promote academic excellence, and to promote cooperative learning and teamwork among students. What do I do as a parent? ✦Look for the commitment letter at Student Led Conferences. ✦Students will form teams at the first meeting. ✦Support your child in accessing the books via the library (talk with their teacher if this is not possible). What do the students need to do? ✦Sign the commitment letter at Student Led Conferences. ✦Get excited about reading new books! ✦Talk about the books with others. ✦Read, read, read! Students had an opportunity to watch the book trailers today as our official OBOB kick-off, and there was a lot of excitement about these books! That is what this program is all about! Please let us know if you have any questions.
