Reflection of the School Year

Now that the school year is over, I will reflect on some things that I hove enjoyed and learned over the past year.

My first big achievement was getting into the GATE math program, where I learned many things such as calculating the area of a triangle and learning codes for the GATE Math Fair. Although I had already loved math when I got into the program, I feel that GATE has deepened my appreciation of math even more.

Second of all, I liked it when I got to do a book talk on a mystery I had recently read. For my book talk I did the book The Case of the Screeching Owl by Franklin W. Dixon. I greatly enjoyed the book and when when I finished my book talk I got secures on every mini-subject I was supposed to focus on.

Finally, I liked it when at the end of the year I had a book club doing the book Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins. I enjoyed talking about the book with my book club and wish we could've talked about more books.

Those are some highlights of the past school year and I hope I can have another year as good as this one.

The Mysterious Benedict Society

Recently I read a book called The Mysterious Benedict Society, and it was AMAZING. The story takes place in a city called Stonetown, where a mysterious ad appears in the newspaper saying, "Are you a gifted child looking for special opportunities?" When eleven-year-old orphan Reynard Maldoon finds this ad, he decides to take a series of tests to join the Mysterious Benedict Society. After the long-awaited moment of peace when the tests are finally over, Reynard finds himself with two other test-takers: Sticky Washington and Kate Wetherall. Although they have completely different pasts, they all share one thing in common: before the second test, all three of them met a girl named Rhonda Kazembe whose pencil fell into a drain. Rhonda then offered all three of them test cheats. After they discovered that had happened to all three of them, a man introducing himself as Milligan meets them, he suddenly brings them into a mysterious maze of rooms. After all three of them complete the maze, they meet a man named Nicholas Benedict, who tells them that them that they are in greater danger than ever expected. The excitement goes on from there.
