I really like language arts. I really like reading and I feel like I get more into reading than I do other subjects. I just feel like, for me, it’s easier for me to comprehend when I’m reading a book than when I’m looking at math problem or something.
My favorite author is Kate DiCamillo. We have some of her books in the library, and I think my favorite book of hers is “The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.” It makes you think, and I like feeling what the character feels. I feel like it has a lot of emotion in it.
I was on a Battle of the Books team with four other people and we did really well. We worked really well together, and I feel like we all kind of enjoyed reading the books that we had to read for it. Our librarian did a really good job of helping us get ready for competitions.
Have you thought about what you want to be when you grow up?
I don’t really have anything particular I want to do. With our guidance counselor, we went over the middle and high school stuff, and I was really interested in the legal program at one of the high schools. My friends all said, “You’d be a great lawyer.” Because, I mean, I can argue if I have to. But, really, I haven’t thought about it all that much. I’m more focused on this year and going to middle school and all of that.
