During the past two weeks, I have been hosting a modified version of March Madness. Students have been voting for their favorite fictional book characters, including completing their own brackets, and explaining why they feel it would end in this manner. Students have also been creating posters for their favorite book characters, and displaying them in the school to promote their favorite, and persuade others to vote. Students have created posters using the same template from Black History Month, as well as drawing, and creating posters at home on poster board.
It has been very exciting to see the students invest so much in voting for their favorites and cheering them on. It has been a very successful campaign to encourage reading. Voting is still going on (as we are now in the Elite Eight) for at least two more weeks! Be sure to check out the March Madness page on iGould to follow the results!
