Why They Love Being a Student

Mostly friends. But she also LOVES when she gets to play the Stack the States game at school, going to the library to borrow "Katie the Catsitter" ...again, and MATH-- For example, today's work was Cube vs. Not a Cube.

Favorite Subject & Why

Every morning, the first graders talk about "What's in the news?" Haddie frequently comes home with facts like "lizards lick their eyeballs because they can't blink on their own" or why mushroom experts should be consulted before eating a mushroom in the forest.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

Haddie said she’d spend some of it on candy and toys, but she also thought it would be fun to use half for a trip to Wyoming—her favorite state—because she learned from How the States Got Their Shapes that it’s considered the happiest state, and she wants to see Old Faithful. She said "fine" when it was suggested the other half could go toward her college fund.
