Gallagher Girls/ Kingdom Keepers


Taylor recommends I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You.  This is the first book of the Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter. This series is about Cammie Morgan, the Chameleon, who is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women.  On the outside the school seems like a normal boarding school for wealthy girls, but in reality it is a top secret academy for spies in training.  Although Cammie and her friends are in training, they find themselves in dangerous situations that force them to use all their spy training to overcome great odds.  Taylor says, "I really like this book because it has a lot of action and suspense.  I also like the relation between Cammie and her friends.  It is a really good book!"  This series can be located at Mrs. Baker's classroom library or the RSMS media center.


Gabe recommends the Kingdom Keepers series by Ridley Pearson.  Five Florida teens are used as the models to create holograms for guides in the Disney Parks, but when the technology backfires, the teens are transported into the parks after hours.  Once in the park, the teens face dangerous Disney villains and witches who threaten the future of Disney.  Gabe says, "The Kingdom Keepers is a great series for anyone who has ever been to Disney.  The books are fun and excited through the whole series."  This series can be located at the RSMS library.

Mrs. Baker's Blurb: FSA Practice Test
The Florida State Assessment (FSA's) are just around the corner!  Don't panic, but be prepared.  One way to do that (other then read, read, read) is to take a practice test found on the FSA website.  The format of the questions are different than the FCAT.  It is not just multiple choice anymore.  Use the following link to access the practice test to learn more about the types of questions that will be on the test: http://www.fsassessments.org/training-tests
