Antioch Upper Grade School is found in Northern Illinois, USA.  We are known as 'The Warriors' and about 1,050 students in grades 6 - 8 (that's ages 11-14) are in our building.  Students come to our building from four lower grade schools in the area and most students will go to one of the two public high schools found in our town of a population of about 14,500 people.  We are located in a beautiful area with many lakes, forests, and ski hills and are about 30 minutes from the shores of  the blue (and chilly) waters of Lake Michigan.   Our town is equidistant from Chicago, IL and Milwaukee, WI.

Hi Penny,

I am very pleased to meet you!  My name is Bonnie Thurber and I am the person who is responsible for the iCollaboratory. I love to swim also. I have one dog and two cats. Sometimes I think the dog is afraid of the cats. He has some toys that he likes to case but, he stays away from the cats. When I was your age, basketball was my favorite sport also.  What is your favorite swimming stroke?

Thank you,

Bonnie Thurber

Hi Manders,

I am very pleased to meet you!  My name is Bonnie Thurber and I am the person who is responsible for the iCollaboratory. I think you have a very interesting nick-name. Is there a story about how you got it?

India is a very interesting place to visit. Do you have a reason for wanting to go there?

Thanks,

Bonnie Thurber

Hi my name is Samuel but you can call me Sam.  I'm a teenager.  I like to play catch and play outside with my friends.  On the other hand I also enjoy playing video games like TF2 and Skyrim.  I enjoy school and love to read books.  Some great reads are "HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy" and the "Maze Runner".  My favorite subject in school is science.  I like to hang out and play board games and card games with my friends like Munchkin and Forbidden Island.  I have one brother who annoys me to no end.  I'm also in Boy Scouts and am close to eagle.  I am learning to speak some Mandarin Chinese.  Where I come from it is very cold in the winter and hot in the summer.  I am ready to meet some new people and have fun in science!
