WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS
PRESTON
Preston made a video for his YouTube channel this week. He loves creating content and is focusing on improving his editing skills for both audio and video. He was pleasantly surprised at how much engagement he received online. He hopes to be able to spend more time creating videos in the future.
MARISSA
Marissa read "Democracy in America, Volume 1" for her Quest class this week. It was a huge accomplishment for her to get through a book this large and difficult. Only two of her peers finished in time for the book discussion and she was one of them! She liked how they did a lot of comparisons between two countries and made good observations. She also liked how De Toqueville allowed different opinions and ways of living to teach him. He was humble enough to learn and try to replicate what he considered to be an ideal system of government.
CALEB
Caleb read "Mrs. Frizby and the Rats of Nimh" for Ninja Scholars. He said he really enjoyed the book and he even asked if this book was part of a series. That is very high praise coming from this kid who definitely knows which types of books he enjoys.
