There's a war going on in the 5th and 6th classroom. But it's not what you think- it's a book war. The class is split up into 4 teams: "The Moles Utd", "The Hibbidie-Jibbidies", "Ze Wagners" and "Team Lightening". For 6 weeks each pupil gets a book to read. On Friday they must answer 6 questions on the book and the scores are totalled. During the week the teams meet up to discuss their books and to help each other understand them. So far the Hibbidie-Jibbidies are in the lead. The winners will get a prize of classroom money to shop for classroom services. The competition is keen and it's about strategies as well as reading. We'll keep you posted...
