Luke and his brothers’ Paul and Joel’s Winning Video:
Luke is a fifth grader from Wilmington, NC.
Luke – “I love to read nonfiction books because they educate me about what we are studying in our homeschool at any given time. I especially like books about math and logic as well as mysteries. When I am not reading, I enjoy playing the piano and guitar. I am active in my church homeschool group and youth band and enjoy visiting nursing homes to share my music and also volunteer at the NICU at our local hospital as well as with Special Olympics. I enjoy math, science, and anything to that deals with technology and have been blessed to be able to read many books from my local library on all of these topics.”
Paul – “I love to read mysteries and books about dolphins. When I am not reading, I enjoy writing plays, taking drama classes, and volunteering with Special Olympics as well as the NICU. I also enjoying playing piano and drums, being a part of my church youth band, and sharing drama and music with local nursing homes. I enjoy finding good books at the library and enjoy reading with the dog at our local library.”
Joel – “I love anything about trains and I think I have read all the children’s books at my local library about trains. I enjoy going to the library with my big brothers and playing with all the fun toys while they look for books. I also really like going to Preschool Math and Science. For all three: In addition to getting LOTS of books from our local library, we enjoy the stop motion animation programs, preschool math and science, edible books, craft events, reading with the dogs, as well as the summer reading program and fun run! As homeschoolers, the library allows us to expand our learning in so many amazing ways!!!”
