WMS is competing in the The BANANAGRAMS Challenge five-week tournament that will run from January 2017 through February 2017. The Challenge is open to students in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades in schools from all across the New England area. At each school, groups of students will play a series of BANANAGRAMS games. The winners’ names for each round will be posted on a leader board until we find our Champion or ‘Best of the Bunch’. Our Ware Middle School ‘Best of the Bunch’ will then register to play a series of BANANAGRAMS-based word games online. If he/she makes it as one of the top 12 players from New England schools, he/she will earn a place in the live Grand Final where the 2017 Top Banana will be crowned! The Top Banana will also win $1000 for their school!
Tournament games will be before school in the library from 7:45am-8:45am every Monday and Friday. Please return permission slip to the Library Media Specialist by Friday, January 20th. Each child will be given their game day on Friday when the permission slip is returned.
