ORGANIZATION
Knowledge Bowl is an academic team competition. Meets take place after school. Volunteers act as question readers or judges during rounds, training provided.
During a KB meet, teams of students work cooperatively to solve oral and written round questions. No team is eliminated during a meet and every team participates in every round. Questions are related to all areas of learning typical of middle grades programs.
Knowledge Bowl competitions test students’ recall and problem solving abilities, critical thinking skills and teamwork work skills.
