Battle of the Books : Coaching an English High School Literacy Trivia Competition in Montreal, Quebec
|
| Abstract |
Battle of the Books is a high school book-knowledge competition. The author describes the Battle of the Books competitions held yearly in Montreal since 2013. She points out that the competition provides an opportunity for students who are not necessarily athletically inclined to experience competition and belonging to a team. The author outlines the history of the Montreal events, started by two librarians from the Lester B. Pearson School Board, and explains how the competition works and details the experience of coaching Battle of the Books teams.
