FORM A TEAM Form a team of 3-10 students from your school or public library. All participants must be in 4th-8th grade and be located in Maine. It is even more fun when there are several teams competing from one school!
REGISTER Have your school representative (teacher, librarian, etc.) register through the Google Form in the "Register" section of this website. Registration opens in September and closes in November of each school year.
READ You and your team read the books on this year's reading list. It is best to split the reading up between all team members.
COMPETE All registered teams will compete in a Kahoot against other teams in their school. One team per participating district will compete in another Kahoot against other district's within their region (North, South, East, West, or Central Maine). The winning team from each region will move on to the final state round. The winner of the state round is crowned the Great Maine Book Tournament winner! Confused about how each round plays out?

TIMELINE Start reading as soon as you form a team. Dates for each Round will be announced in the fall after registration closes. The first Kahoot for Round 1 is typically available in November.
