A team of Syre Elementary 4th and 5th graders won the Shoreline School District Global Reading Challenge held March 1 at Shoreline Center.
The "Syre Book Worms" coached by teacher Jennifer Altena and librarian Heidi Alexander edged teams from six other Shoreline elementary schools.
Syre advances to the regional challenge on March 8 at the Kingsgate Library in Kirkland.
The Global Reading Challenge is a cooperative effort between King County Library System and local public school districts. This is a Battle of the Books-style program that allows 4th and 5th graders across the county to work together as a team and challenge other schools to correctly answer questions about the selected books. Each year, King County Library System children's librarians select 10 titles in a wide range of reading levels especially suited to the interests of young readers.
