School!

So I thought I would show people what education classes look like and what we do! We just have fun pretty much.

So this is Sabrina working out our new math problem. We are trying to figure out how many different Trains we can make for length "n". We can figure it out anyway that we want. Our group used cuisanire rods.
This is Hannah and Sabrina. We are looking for a pattern between each new length.

This is the answer! It is Pascal's Triangle. Each new length of train builds off the last lengths possibilities. It looks really cool!

This is my technology class. Amy Andrea and I are working with a technology called Stellarium. It is a cool program which allows you to look at the nght sky as you would see from where you are. WE used it to take pictures of the moon for an entire month. We would teach the students about the phases of the moon.
This is the technology class. We are using a computer program called stellarium which allows you to look at the stary night on any date. It is a really cool program. We are doing a lesson plan using it to look at the moon for an entire month.This is Andrea showing off the night sky.... Just there is a glare. ...And finally this is Amy doing the hardwork... The actually writing of the plan! WOOT

So before Christmas I met my family in Las Vegas. We went through some of the casinos. Here are a few of the pictures that I took of the cutest kids ever. Oh and my mom and I with "Donny Osmond". BUT the coolest thing is the UNDERWATER SCUBA DIVER SANTA. He really talked with the kids!
