Sunshine State Young Reader Award Book Bash Teams

Each year Brevard County holds a Book Bash Competition that includes the Florida SSYRA Books for that year.  The Book Bash is held in the Spring of the school year and tryouts will be held TBA.

The teams consist of 4 members in the following categories:

Grades 3-5 (3 teams) and Grade 6 (up to 15 students)

• Book Quest - Is like a Jeopardy Game where questions are asked about the content of the books.
• Book Jacket - Students design a new cover and write a summary of a book that is choosen on the day of the Book Bash.
• Reader's Theater- Team members dramatically read a selection from one of the books and are judged on their performance.

Each team member is encouraged to read all 15 of the Sunshine State Books included in the competition before April.   The teams begin meeting in March with Mrs. Imka to prepare for the competition.  If you are interested in the Book Bash, see Mrs. Imka in the media center for all the details.

Students who have book fines on their accounts due to lost/damaged books will not be able to check out books until the lost/damaged item has been returned, paid for, or replaced in kind. 

Fines from lost/damaged books at other Brevard County schools need to be cleared as well.  Payment or found books can be returned to the school they belong to, or to Mrs. Imka at Suntree Elementary and she will return the item to the appropriate location.
