Reading Bowl

Devin was asked to be in the Fairplay Middle School Reading Bowl this year. They are required to read between 15 and 20 Newberry award books and then they compete with other schools on comprehension of these books. Saturday was the County Reading Bowl.



While they were waiting to get started they continued going over notes and getting in a few more study questions.

They explained all the rules and then sent each team to a classroom to compete. Middle school competed against 5 other teams. 5 kids on each team compete. First one to buzz in gets to answer the question and each round consists of 10 questions.

Devin answered several questions in the first round and then at the very end he answered the tie breaking question for 2nd place. Fairplay will now get to compete in the regional Reading Bowl next Saturday at West Ga College. I was so proud of him! What a cool kid!

Below are some photos of his team celebrating.
