Whether your students are learning from home, in the classroom, or some combination of the two, turn their reading into a school competition with audiobook titles they'll love. Students using the Learning Ally Audiobook Solution download and read selected books to participate in a fun, bracket-style competition, and then vote on their favorites.
Here's how to get started:
1. Print off a bracket for each participating student.
2. Make a bulletin board or large poster of the bracket.
3. Students read the books that face off against each other.
4. Select dates for students to cast their votes by.
5. Students can read and vote on as many pairs as they would like.
6. Continue until a final book has been named the champion!
7. Have all students read the champion title!
Choose from the brackets below or create your own.
