What is it?
PageTurners is
a literature-based competition for students in grades 3-12.
Wayland Cohocton Elementary participates in Chapter 1
(grades 3 and 4). We send teams from the Wayland building
and teams from the Cohocton building to two competitions
each year. Two teams of six students per building prepare to
answer questions by reading the books on the Official List
of Titles, which is prepared by a committee of teachers and
librarians. Teams compete in a round-robin format with
nearby schools, and division winners advance to a
region-wide final tournament. Winning teams are recognized
with plaques. All participants receive certificates.
Students
participating in PageTurners may read up to 14 books each
semester, selected by a panel of teachers and library
specialists. Audio books and iPods are available through
Media Library at Genesee Valley BOCES. Students are
encouraged to participate in writing questions for
competitions. In the Wayland Elementary building we meet
every Monday morning at 7:30. We also have LAB during the
week to read, write questions or discuss and review. If you
have any questions please contact Mrs. Hartzell or Mrs.
Meldrum by calling the Elementary Office at 728-3547
or by emailing
Nancy Hartzell
and
Elise Meldrum. |
