Hi, I'm Alyssa. I am in 6th grade in the Astre program, which is a class for kids who learn fast. I'm 11 years old. I enjoy making crafts such as painting stained glass and making jewelry. I also like to sing, dance, and act. My favorite school subject is science. I want to be a field biologist when I grow up. I've taken many wildlife classes already at local zoological societies, including one on Wildlife Careers. I've recently started taking acting classes.

Hi! My name is Moriah, I am 11 years old, and in the 6th grade. I like to sing and dance. I am on the school volleyball team. I am Puerto Rican and Irish and I speak Spanish. I enjoy writing scary stories. I am an "A" student, and my favorite subject is Math. When I grow up I want to be a pediatric nurse because I love little kids. One time I helped my cousin get better by giving her tea when she was ill. :-)
