Nini Aluko-Olokun-Favorite Novel

1177880 — 2026-01-07 17:36:29 UTC

My favorite novel is Estranged by Ethan M. Aldridge, not just because of the story, but also the art that is portrayed throughout. They used a bit of foreshadowing to let the reader ponder what happens next. It also has an intricate plot, sewing in details here and there. Overall, it's a great read whenever you feel adventurous.

Charlie Arquilla. Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.

1167649 — 2026-01-07 17:37:36 UTC

My favorite novel is Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. The author of the Percy Jackson series, Rick Riordan, really starts the series with a bang. The story and plot of this book are very action-packed. Gods, Demigods, Monsters, anything to do with Greek mythology is in here.

Zy Washington

1174663_1 — 2026-01-07 17:37:59 UTC

This is my favorite book because I'm a fan of basketball, and I also play it. I enjoyed this book because it related to me just from the way they talk and the sport they play. Also, from some of the things in the book, it was like flashbacks almost. In the book, the brothers get in a fight, and sometimes in the house, it's like that with my brother and me.

Hayden Majors

1160994_1 — 2026-01-07 17:38:49 UTC

I really enjoyed this book because it was very entertaining the entire time. I was engaged and on the edge of my seat. My heart was shattered by the words of the family after the little girls died. In the book you were from the perspective of Susie, the main character. It shows how people react under pressure from their own hearts. In 1973, a murder killed Susie. Susie watches how her family feels after she passes. I could not find a book that gave me the same feelings and the engagement this book gave me. This book is only for a certain audience definitely.

Natalie later when she organized a marathon for cebreal palsey, she claimed to have been very good friends with Mia, but all she did back in school was bully her and that caused Mia to commit suicide. Dawn really didn't like that because Natalie was the reason that her one and only friend. That caused the whole plot twist in this book, because Natalie was later arrested for the murder of Dawn. If you want to find out why she was arrested, I recommend reading this book.

Hi Vesna! It's nice talking to you again. I thought that I would tell you about my favorite picture book. Yes, I may be a little to old for picture books considering I am 13 but I have read this book since I was a little girl and it has still stuck with me ever since. This book is about a zebra named Zane who has special Autism stripes. These stripes may make him different and make him stick out but as we read, we learn Zane is just a normal zebra who loves his family,friends,and school. This book is important to me because I have a brother with autism. His name is Mac and he is 10 years old. This book never fails to remind me that although Mac may look and be a little different from others he still is the same as every other 10 years old boy. I have read this book to my classes from 2nd grade to 5th grade during Autism Awareness Month and since then I have always been inspired by this book. I hope you give this book a try to!

Lilly Dermos- Favorite novel

1186599 — 2026-01-07 17:40:24 UTC

My favorite novel is "Between Shades of Gray" written by Ruta Sepetys. This book starts in Kanus, Lithuania, where 15 year old Lina, her mom, and her little brother Jonas were then taken out of their home. They are taken by train to go from different work/concentration camps during World War Two. It shows the crimes of the leader Joseph Stalin and the Soviet Union. I like this book because it shows the characters determination and it harnesses the idea that it is better to work together than to work alone.

swagger

1167801_1 — 2026-01-07 17:40:28 UTC

Swagger is my favorite novel because it displays a very wholesome friendship between two sons and their father. Though troubles and disputes between the family sports is what kept them all together. Everyday and night was dedicated to sports for the brothers. And their dad was there to support them the entire way through. But after finding out there dad was very very sick the boys knew they were now playing with a purpose, and that was to make their dad proud.

Nyah Brownlee

1160359 — 2026-01-07 17:41:20 UTC

My favorite novel is "What's Eating, Jackie Oh?" by Patricia Park, because I love how it touches on problematic and contreversial events that most middle-school novels don't cover. The problem that it covers is AAPI hate-crimes, which at one point of the story, tells the reader about a person who was murdered on a subway train because they were AAPI. I also like how it talks about Korean culture, and frequently uses Korean text in the dialouge. I also like how the plot is NOT predictable, and the protagonist isn't a Mary-sue. If I had the opportunity, I would rewind time to have the experience of rereading this book again!

Alana Venegas - As dead as it gets

1153018 — 2026-01-07 17:41:50 UTC

One of my favorite novels is As Dead as it gets by Katie Alender. This book is a part of a horror series, about a girl named Alexis who is haunted by a ghost lydia. Alexis has the ability to see ghosts in photos, and deals with terrifying attacks by what seems to be an evil spirit named laina. Laina is out to get Alexis as she has stolen her ex boyfriend who she dated when she was alive. She threatens Alexis everyday with things like making her car spin or hurting her loved ones. Lydia and alexis work together to take laina down and to stop her from hurting so many people.

Krisha Patel

1187714 — 2026-01-07 17:41:52 UTC

My name is Krisha and my favorite novel is called Refugee! Refugee is a novel about 3 different stories all in one book about escaping a dangerous country and immigrating to another. 3 different characters in 3 different situations and 3 different periods of time, Josef, Isabel, and Mahmoud sneak there way into immigration with problems around the way and overtime, the end may be a surprise!

Dean Chapman

1160507_1 — 2026-01-07 17:42:45 UTC

My favorite novel is the graveyard book. I read this book at the end of last year and I found the ending very interesting. The book started off with a small child's parents getting murdered. The boy would then find his way to a graveyard in which his parents killer (Jack) could not reach. He stayed there for the rest of his life until he was old enough to defeat his parents killer and venture off into the world.

Brooklyn Sconza

1154131_1 — 2026-01-07 17:43:00 UTC

My favorite Novel is Not Quite Dead Yet by Holly Jackson! I love this book because the plot is very unique and something I would never think of. The story comes with many surprises and plot twists throughout the book and I never got bored. The little details that are included makes the books so much better when you really think of it and it just ties the story all together. I would definitely recommend this book and it is a great read especially if you are into murders and mystery!

Legend by Marie Lu

1160547 — 2026-01-07 17:43:21 UTC

Hi! I'm Jasmine J and my favorite book is Legend by Marie Lu. My favorite genres are dystopian and romance, and this book is both. It is about a future United States that has been split into two territories, which are constantly at war with each other, and both have dark, political, secrets. It is told from two perspectives and is part of a three book series. It is fasted paced, and very fun to read.

Amanvita Medi

1180200 — 2026-01-07 17:43:32 UTC

Hi Natalija! My favorite book is called "Powerless" by Lauren Roberts. I love this book because it combines my two favorite genres, fantasy and romance. It's also a mix of enemies to lovers and forbidden love. It takes place in a world where everyone has some sort of power, and if you don't, you're supposed to be dead. The FMC, Paedyn, is powerless, but fakes a power so she can survive. She lived in the shadows until she was chosen to fight in a competition that the whole country watches. One of her competitors is the MMC, Kai, who is the prince and kills the powerless. Kai falls in love with Paedyn, but Paedyn can't love him back because she is the very thing he kills. This book is tense, fast paced and very addicting, and I'd definitely recommend it.

Delilah Marion

1159726_1 — 2026-01-07 17:43:46 UTC

My favorite book is Love, Lucas by Chantele Sedgwick. I love this book because it is such a cute story about a girl and her brother being best friends. The main character, Oakley lost her brother Lucas due to cancer, and passes away. Oakley then moves from Utah to California with her mom and they move in with her aunt. She then stays there for the rest of her life and falls in love with her neighbor. I thought this book was a really good because it went from heartbreak to her finding someone who can help her grief.

Olivia Refness

1160355_2 — 2026-01-07 17:43:54 UTC

Deadly by Julie Chibarro is my favorite novel that I've been reading so far. I found it very interesting because the story is set in the early 1900's and revolves around early scientific discoveries. The protagonist is a young woman who drops out of school to pursue a career in science, which was frowned upon. Throughout the story, she makes discoveries about the properties of bacteria and how they perform in the human body. Reading the book was very engaging and I loved how it embraced the difficulties of being a woman in the workforce in the early 1900's.

The Miraculous Journey Of Edward Tulane (Ariya Bamrah)

11607211 — 2026-01-07 17:44:31 UTC

My favorite novel is called The Miraculous Journey Of Edward Tulane! I love how there is so much detail and how I can picture images in my head while I read it. Edward Tulane is in many people's hands, but not his owners. Each and every one telling Edward a story about the world. When I was reading this book, I wanted to read it so often because I was curious if Edward Tulane would ever make it back to his owner.

My favorite book

1160740 — 2026-01-07 17:44:31 UTC

I am David Truong, and I don't really have a favorite book, but the book that kept me enticed was "Code of Honor." It was about this kid (Kamaran I think), and he was the star player on the football team, and on the news, his brother was like doing attacks on America, and he was called a terrorist, and Kamaran was looked at differently because of it. A lot happened after that, but it's my "favorite" is because it has kept me enticed.

Laniyah Stanback

1160240 — 2026-01-07 17:44:38 UTC

Unwind is my favorite book, Unwind is a part of, I believe is, a 4 book series. I have only read the first book but really love it. This book is a medium paced book that introduces lots of interesting characters throughout the story. I also really like how the author chose to switch POV throughout the story. Unwind is about three teenagers that ran away so they wouldn't be unwound. Being unwound is a surgery that takes all parts of your body and gives them to those who need them.

Zachary Bridges. Charlie Thorne and the Last Equation

1159668 — 2026-01-07 17:46:44 UTC

Charlie Thorne and the Last Equation is my favorite novel for its characters, story, and smartly planned plot. The plot of this book is basically centered around a 12 year old girl named Charlie Thorne but the thing special about her is that she is immensely smart. About 75 years ago, Albert Einstein died but left a very powerful math equation that has the answer for unlimited energy and power somewhere around the world. A terrorist group who heard about this powerful equation plan to use it to take over the world and leave a wake of destruction behind to those who don't follow them. The problem is, is that they're ahead in the search so the U.S. The government recruits her to solve the clues left behind by Einstein to find the equation and save the world. Other than the plot, I really like the character of Charlie because she makes some really smart moves that I could not even start to think about. I also like how the author planned this story out well since it connects really well at the end so I highly recommend this book if you like movies like mission impossible because they have the same feeling of suspense when reading/watching them.

Evan Schmidt - My Favorite Novel

1160888_1 — 2026-01-07 17:49:54 UTC

My favorite novel is Miss Peregrine's Home for peculiar children, because at first, looking at the cover of the book makes it look like a "scary" book that is boring, but if you really read it, it gets interesting. It had a really interesting plot with WWII tied to it, and not only is it the plot that makes the book good, but it also has pictures that lets you visually process what is happening. I don't want to spoil anything from the book, so I recommend this book for you to read.

MJ-The outsiders

11598481 — 2026-01-07 17:52:15 UTC

My favorite novel is the outsiders by S.E Hinton. I read the novel back in sixth grade and its been one of the best I've read. The book has two groups such as the greasers and SOCs. The greasers would be the low class and SOCs would be the high class with all the nice stuff. The main character of the book ponyboy is part of greasers were you'd also get to know the rest of the character in the novel. I think the outsiders is a good novel and recommend it.

Gene Aceron

1152792_1 — 2026-01-07 17:59:10 UTC

My favorite novel is "Framed" by James Ponti. I read this book 2 years ago and really liked it. This series is filled with adventure and crime solving. It's about a teenage kid helping the FBI solve a case with his strategy "Theory of all small things" called TOAST. I like this novel because its similar to another book series I like called Sherlock Holmes.

Hayden Majors (Fav vacation spot)

1160994_1 — 2026-01-26 15:50:21 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is Destin, Florida. I go to this restaurant with the best ranch and grilled chicken. We go to Seaside and get grilled cheese. It is a walk around shopping place outdoors, but it's really pretty. We also go banana boating in the ocean and it is really fun!

Krisha Patel

1187714 — 2026-01-26 15:56:53 UTC

My name is Krisha and my favorite vacation spot is in the Grand Turk in Turks and Caicos! This is a British Territory overseas right next to the Dominican Republic in North America! It is a very small island, but there are go karts to tour, cute shops to shop in, lighthouses to see, and an amazing clear water beach! This is clearly the best for all of those reasons above and the locals are incredibly generous! It's a cool short vacation place to visit and everybody loves it when they visit!

Nini Aluko-Olokun - Favorite Vacation Spot

1177880 — 2026-01-26 15:56:56 UTC

Last year, I headed to Nigeria for over 3 weeks. Abeokuta was one of the places we went, as it was my mom's hometown. It is also home to a monument called Olumo Rock, as well as many large markets to buy what you need. Overall, I really loved it and hope to go there again soon!

Clearwater Beach!

11607211 — 2026-01-26 15:57:13 UTC

Hi! I am Ariya and my favorite vacation spot is Clearwater Beach in Florida! My family and I went for a few days and it was beautiful. I got to spend time on the beach, try new restaurants and go on a boat ride! The boat ride was one of my favorites because I got to see dolphins! I had the best time and I hope to go back soon!

1160547 — 2026-01-26 15:57:18 UTC

I place I really want to go to someday is Iceland. Some of my family members have been there. I want to go specifically to Þingvellir National Park, because It has been my dream to see the northern lights since I was little. I can't wait to hear about what places you would/have liked to visit.

Amanvita Medi

1180200 — 2026-01-26 15:58:24 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is Dubai, UAE. The architecture there is very futuristic and really pretty to look at. The Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, and it's located in Dubai. It's so tall that you can watch the sunset twice, once at the top of the tower and once at the bottom. There are also a lot of tourism activities there, such as malls, buildings, museums, etc. Dubai is also home to the largest mall in the world, the Mall of Dubai. There are also so many shops and activities you can do there as well. I've only been there once for 5 days, but those 5 days were the best ever!

Olivia Refness

1160355_2 — 2026-01-26 16:02:00 UTC

My favorite vacation spot that I've ever gone to is Hawaii. The weather was amazing the entire time I was there and the plants and scenery outside the resort were really fun and exciting to explore. I was also able to climb up the crater of a volcano and visit Pearl Harbor. My favorite part was by far the lagoon, where I was able to swim in a large sectioned off area of the ocean with my family and enjoy the sun.

Delilah Marion (favorite vacation spot)

1159726_1 — 2026-01-26 16:02:42 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is Crete, Greece. It has such clear water and the food is amazing. There are beaches all over and its literally gorgeous. When I went we went to beaches and we went on some boat rides.

Venice - Alana Venegas

2026-01-26 16:02:50 UTC

One of my favorite vacation spots is Venice! Venice is a city in italy, I absolutely love venice because there is such good food and is very picturesque. Its such a cool experience to stay right on top of an ocean, which is is such a weird feeling since you can sometimes feel yourself moving with the water. This photo is my own, I took this when I visited a few months ago, I cant wait to go again!

My favorite vacation spot is Texas. My cousins live there and it's always so fun to hang out with them. We always go places and last time we went to a city and it was really fun. They always make me laugh and keep me entertained.

David Truong

1160740 — 2026-01-26 16:06:01 UTC

My favorite place I have ever been is Tampa, Florida. I went here with my family, and it was really great. The house we stayed at had a pool attached, and we went to waterparks and had many cool experiences. It was also nice because the weather there is very hot and a nice change of pace from Illinois weather. It was also really great because I got to be with my family in a great place.

Favorite Vacation Spot - Maddie Gredlics

1159986_2 — 2026-01-26 16:06:11 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is anywhere where there is a beach and it’s hot. I love Mexico and I just went for my second time in November. My cousins were supposed to come with but they didn’t so it was just me and my family. I also love the Bahamas. Puerto Rico. and Dominican Republic. I would love to go to Europe and see where all of my family is from too! Can’t wait to learn about you Daniela! x

Lilly Dermos- Favorite vacation spot

1186599 — 2026-01-26 16:07:38 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is New Buffalo, which is a city in Michigan! Every summer, my aunt rents a house close to the beach. Between the beaches, and the tourist attractions such as shops, cafes and restaurants, I think New Buffalo is a great location for a summer vacation.

Gene Aceron

1152792_1 — 2026-01-26 16:09:03 UTC

My favorite vacation spot is China. The temples are so cool, even though you cant go in most of them. The food their is the best, no matter where I went to eat I was always over eating. I was there during the lantern festival and that was so exciting to watch. Hope I go again soon.

Dean Chapman (Vacation Spot)

1160507_1 — 2026-01-26 16:09:32 UTC

My favorite vacation spot, is Fort Lauderdale, in Florida. I went there over winter break on a family vacation and I found the whole atmosphere to be amazing. We went to many delicious restaurants where we were served sushi, tacos, and steaks. What I liked most about the vacation was the perfectly warm temperature, which was the opposite of what we had been experiencing in Illinois.

Zachary Bridges

2026-01-26 16:09:56 UTC

My favorite vacation spot I've been to is Ocean Cay in the Bahamas. This is a private owned my MSC cruises and the only way to legally step foot on this island is by being on an MSC cruise ship bound for this island. Even though it's private, it's what makes this my favorite vacation spot ever. Since it's private, there will be no vendors trying to fool you into selling something to you and there won't be sketchy locals eyeing you for your whole stay. It's just a calm island in the middle of a beautiful ocean. The climate is soothing, the water is cool, and there's many activities and options to chose on the island. If I could go to Yosemite or Ocean Cay, I'd pick Ocean Cay every time.

MJ Brown(Favorite vacation spot)

11598481 — 2026-01-26 16:10:07 UTC

My favorite vacation place would be Orlando Florida. Down there is really good weather. It's a great place to go spend time with family as you also have all kind of places you go such as Universal or Disney world. I'd recommend going.

11605022 — 2026-02-02 17:28:07 UTC

It was really good and entertaining. the author made the book really descriptive and kept me wanting to read.

Charlie Arquilla. Best vacation spot.

1167649 — 2026-02-02 17:40:50 UTC

My favorite vacation spot was San Diego, California. This is where my uncle lives, and it is always good to see him there. It is only a 2-hour drive to Disneyland, and about a 40-minute drive to Universal Studios. Personally, my favorite part was Super Nintendo World at Universal.

Laniyah Stanback

1160240 — 2026-02-03 03:49:58 UTC

The best vacation spot I've been on was when I went to Hawaii. It was the year after Covid hit. We couldn't do everything we wanted, but I love seeing the Pacific ocean and the tropical animals. It was also nice to see family that lives there.

Fernanda Gonzalez

1168343 — 2026-02-03 05:45:15 UTC

I love this book because the main character goes through many hard struggles, and the book shows how it changes her over time. It feels very real and emotional. You can see how her past and choices shape who she becomes while she's trying to figure that out herself.

Fernanda Gonzalez

1168343 — 2026-02-03 05:50:12 UTC

The best vacation spot that I have been to is Orlando, Florida. The weather is very nice out there and there are many things you could do. There are many beaches and it's all very beautiful out there.

Charlie Arquilla(Favorite Music)

1167649 — 2026-03-18 16:41:02 UTC

My favorite song is "Way Less Sad" by AJR (also my favorite band). This song has been out for a while now, and I like the Broadway kind of music they put into their songs. But this song is the best because of how they made the lyrics. All the lyrics are from some of their old family home movies, and to me, that is awesome.

Krisha Patel- Favorite Artist

1187714 — 2026-03-18 16:54:49 UTC

I have tons of favorite artists, but my favorite artists are from a global girl group called KATSEYE! KATSEYE is a group made by HYBEXGEFFEN and there is a documentary behind it on Netflix called Dream Academy! There are 6 members in KATSEYE from all over the world! These girls are named Lara, Yoonchae, Daniela, Manon, Megan, and Sophia! My favorite songs by them are Gnarly and Debut and I'm excited for them to release new songs soon!

Zy W. (favorite song)

1174663_1 — 2026-03-18 16:54:50 UTC

One of my favorite songs is this one because I like how it's fast-paced. He is also my favorite artist because of how good he is. I like some of his other songs as well, but this one is up there with them.

Nyah Brownlee

1160359 — 2026-03-18 17:03:11 UTC

I'm Nyah, and my favorite song has to be I Don't Smoke. I really like the opening and the lyrics as a whole, and Mitski in general is a really talented artist! The instrumental is really great too!! ☆

Zachary Bridges- Favorite Song

2026-03-19 01:58:13 UTC

I have a lot of different songs from different artists on my Spotify playlist, but none of them stand out like SABOTAGE by Beastie Boys. I don't understand what makes this song hit me more than other ones I listen to, and it's probably partly due to the guitar and other instruments in the background. The lyrics being sung in the song don't even make sense unless you read them, and yet, I can feel them. This song is also supposed to be a fun twist on 1970s crime dramas, which makes this song even more fun to listen to for me. This song is honestly just a really enjoyable song to listen to, and that's why I love it.

Nini Aluko-Olokun - Favorite Song

1177880 — 2026-04-06 16:35:20 UTC

Even though I have a very versatile interest in music, my favorite song is Gira Gira by Ado! The song is pretty much a reflection of one's imperfections with bittersweet lyrics, along with a very intricate instrumentation.

I thought the school year was never going to end, yet here we are. I hope you've gotten to know me better, even though I can't find anything about YOU, Martin Trajkov, throughout this Padlet. Hopefully you got and watched our global collaboration presentations, even though we watched none of your presentations at the moment. I bet you're a great person, and it's kind of insane that a class here has connected with a country halfway around the world. Anyways, hope you have a great rest of your school year, bye.

The year is finally coming to an end and I can't thank you enough for reading our padlets and taking the time to get to know us, even from across the world. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to have communicated and interacted with you. Although the school year is ending and we may not see each other again, I wish you the best of luck during the next school year.

It was nice that I was able to learn about other people that aren't from the same place as me. This school year went by so fast and I wish I was able to learn more about you. Goodbye and have a good summer break

Hello! My favorite artist is Daniel Caesar! I love his songs and they always put me into a good mood. I also love how all of the songs are different from each other and have different meanings!

My favorite music artist is Phoebe Bridgers. I find her music very peaceful and calming. Whenever I'm stressed, I listen to her music to calm down. My favorite album from her is called "Stranger in the Alps."

My favorite vacation spot is The Caribbean. This is because when I was younger, I went on a cruise ship with my family, and I loved it here. We visited many islands, and I even got my own hand-made minion plush. The food and drinks were amazing as well, and I had a really good time there.

My favorite vacation spot is the Caribbean because when I was young, I went on a cruise ship, and we were heading toward the Bahamas. It is my favorite because we went to multiple islands, and it was fantastic. It was amazing, and I got to try new foods and drinks. The Pina colada was my favorite. Overall, I had a good time on my cruise.

My favorite artist is Drake. I love to listen to his songs with friends and family and I feel that is songs have great messages and beats. He produces his songs in a variety of genres from the songs where he sings to the songs where he raps. His slow and fast songs both provide a message that can really change and turn your mood around, he has it all.

My favorite artist is either Tyler, the Creator or Flo Rida. I really love their songs because they help me calm down whenever I am mad or sad. They also make me feel something, whatever the mood of the song is.

It is crazy just thinking about the end of the year. We have made it this far, and just tomorrow we will promote. It is crazy that one journey of my life is ending, and a new chapter is starting. I'm sure you feel the same way. It is also time I say goodbye. Over the year, we shared our experiences across the globe, whether it a presentation, discovering your slides, or just simply talking on this padlet. It was fun getting to know you better. Goodbye!
