Hey Mom, Look What I Learned At School Today!

Fun facts from this week in class:
Physical Science 110B - it is sometimes necessary to lick rocks when trying to identify minerals. Not exactly sanitary, but definitely effective tool in identification.

PETE 169- learned how to teach kids to jump rope, hoola hoop, play softball, tumble, do animal walks and learned how to double Dutch myself! Oh great fun in that class.

Dance 180- got the basic steps of the Foxtrot down. About to be a pro ballroom dancer.  Might sign up for dancing with the stars, you never know.

RelA 122-  I really liked how brother parker related a story in the New Testament to us today in class.  He was talking about materialism and he made the comparison to when Jesus healed the blind man.  He said that to heal the man, he spit in the dirt, making mud and covered the man’s eyes in mud.  He instructed the man to wash the mud from his eyes.  The first thing the man saw when he washed clean his eyes was Christ.  This mud came from the earth representing the materialistic, earthly things in the world that blind us.  When we wash clean the worldly distractions in our eyes, we are able to see Christ again. Pretty cool right?

Stats- here’s a stat for ya . . . 50% of students never know what’s going on in there.

SFL 240- just reviewin’ about my men Piaget and Vygotsky. At this point, we’re pretty tight.
