It’s only 6 and a half weeks until Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens comes out and it’s time to start the weekly Star Wars movie marathons. People will disagree on which order to watch them, but my family is starting with Episode 1 and ending with Episode 6. The prequels are hard to get through, but you got to watch them.
The World Series was amazing this year. I am kind of feeling down this morning, because my Mets lost Sunday night, but congrats to the Kansas City Royals for being the 2015 World Series Champs.

The Martian was an excellent movie with suspense and epic dramatic effects. I loved it and it brought an awesome feeling into the theater. The story was well brought across and had lots of action. It was one of the best movies of the summer.

Mrs. Hales is currently one of the librarians at Salem Junior High. The main reason she chose this job is because she loves reading and working with the students that come to the library. Before working as a librarian Mrs. Hales was a teacher at Springville Junior High. In her spare time she likes to read, write, barrell race, and spend time with her twins Hank and Harper. Her dream vacation would be in Hawaii and her favorite color is purple.
I will be writing my article about the Spanish class here at Salem Junior High. The spanish teacher is Senor Brandon. I feel half of the reason so many people sign up for his classes is because he makes it so fun. Besides his love of Mtn. Dew he also has a love for teaching and Spanish. I have learned a lot so far in his class. He is a great teacher and in the class you learn a lot. You get to watch great videos like Billy La Bufanda.
There is a lot of dislikes and likes about girls and boys. I’ve went around and asked students about what they like and dislike about their opposite gender. Here is what we got.

They competed in groups to see who could complete the hunt for cultural knowledge first!
