This bracket hangs outside my classroom:
Inside my students are reading pairs of books and voting based on this bracket:
Healthy competition, going against one at a time.
Anybody can win!
All root for their team/book!
Go UVA!
Go Trombone Shorty!
Who are YOU rooting for??
This is my first year participating in the March Book Madness. My 3rd graders are doing the Picture Book Madness and we are “mad” about it!! CLICK HERE to learn more. Thanks to Erika Victor for teaching me about it!
Have to find a different team than UVA at this point–definitely not ND! And since Journey got knocked out early, I guess I’m with Ivan, although a Trombone Shorty Ivan final would be okay with me!

My class was disappointed that some of their favorites were out already! Glad we can keep connecting!

As a middle school teacher, I’m ashamed to say I’m not aware of March Book Madness! What a cool idea! Your kids must be so excited!

If I could go back in time, I’d totally do a book bracket madness thing with my students!

We are big fans of the UConn girls, but I don’t think the boys are doing so well. I’m sorry to see Beekle was eliminated in the first round. I adore that book. Nothing but tough choices left. I love them all!

Picture book madness! Genius! We do novels in fourth and it’s so hard for the kids to get through the them.
