Sediment Videos

Last week in my science class, we made a stop animation video showing how two pieces of sediment (small piece of rock or sand) travel from a glacier to either a sand dune or a river delta. The kids made all the pieces and as I took pictures we talked about how everything traveled. I then came home and put it all together.

This is what my two classes created.

First Day of School

This year is the first year in 18 years where I did not go to school. I am surprised that I am not more sad, but I am a little bit. It's weird that my whole life I have been defined as a student first and then whatever else I was doing. Now I have to decide what I want to be defined as. I know it is not a Senior Team Lead. A mom, teacher or photographer. Right now. A mom for sure, the others might change.

One thing is for sure, I want to continue to be a student. It might not be the first thing I am defined by, but I think it is good to continue learning.

So, I will be taking a class from BYU Independent Study. But I don't know which one. I think I am going to take on of these two:

The Expansion of Europe, 1400-1800
British Government and Politics

I wish BYU Independent Study had a larger history and political science section. I just have to decide by the end of this week.
