  2. Synopsis The audiences clapped and cheered loudly. More heat was added to the competition. A school that never won a state middle school competition now made it to the regional round. This team had accomplished something that none of the others had done before. Mrs. Olinski has made a right decision of choosing her Academic Bowl team. How did she chosen her team? What make them success on the road to victory? How and what make this team unique or special compared to the others? Check The View on Saturday for answers.

  3. Meet The Souls

  4. Nadia Diamondstein is a plump girl with bright curly red hair. She has many freckles on her face. She is very intelligent. She has a genius dog called Ginger. Her parents were divorced. Her Grandpa, Izzy married Margaret, Ethan grandma. She is the only girl member in “The Souls”. Nadia Diamondstein

  5. Noah is a 12-year old boy. He has brown hair and wears glasses. He was accidentally the best man at Izzy - Margaret wedding. He was the first one chosen to attend the Knowledge Bowl. He is smart, always has good answers for everything and really observant. Noah Gershom

  6. Ethan is a tall boy with blonde hair. Ethan is the son of the farmers and he lives in the farm. He has a secret love for theatre. He really likes halo and he has a secret crush on Nadia. His family is one of the oldest family of Epiphany town. At school, he usually makes his teachers disappointed because he is not as smart as his brother Lucas. Therefore, he was shy and quiet until “The Souls” was created. Ethan Potter

  7. Julian originally comes from India. However, he has a British accent because he attended a boarding school in England. When he first came to Epiphany middle school, he was bullied. Later, he held a tea party which connect “The Souls” together. His mother was a singer and she died. He is the last one chosen to attend the Knowledge Bowl. Julian Sigh

  8. Theme What we experienced after reading The view from Saturday isn't just about friendship, kindness. It's more about how to look inside, don't look at the outside of a person. We can't assess anyone by their appearance. For instances, in this book, Julian is described as a weird boy in school because he doesn't talk to anyone usually and he's being away from everybody. However, far way from that appearance, he's a nice and understanding friend. His friends can find a peaceful and beautiful time when they're with him. Besides, Ms. Olinski is a paraplegic. People thought that she can't do anything after  her motorbike accident. But, opposite with what they thought, she stood up and started everything again. Ms. Olinski is a nice teacher and she understands her students by her true heart. Moreover, understanding people isn't just to look at them and see how they act. It's about how we feel their mind, how we get their real emotions even though they don't finish the sentence.
