Video Game Review On Majora's Mask
Hello, I"m here to tell about a video game called Majora’s Mask. It's about a little boy named Link in a story called Legend of Zelda and how he lost his horse. The horse falls in a hole and Link goes after her. Nave is a character who slowly falls down the hole behind Link and the game begins. It is a really mysterious game. You’ll find the rest out if you play on 3DS player. This game is appropriate for age 8 and up.

Ithaca SMArts Science Olympiad
By Lindsey Hern
Since last year, the school district has held an annual Science Olympiad at Boynton Middle school. I took part in this event. So, basically, for 6 weeks, you stay after school and learn about each event. On the sixth week, you find out which of the 5 different activities you’ll take part in at the competition. The 5 activities or events are Pasta Bridge, Clay Boats, Picture This, Write It Do It, and Paper Rockets. I was in Picture This, an event where one person is shown/told a science word and they have to draw it. Then the other person/people have to guess the science word. You have 5 minutes to guess as many words as you can. Me and my partner for the event guessed 17 words and got 3rd place. This was my favorite event that we practiced. Last year, there were only 6 teams. this year, there were 13. crazy, right? it was really fun too.
