Car Oops!
My inspiration was just that Mom was taking pictures for fun like she was making a stop motion video and I decided to too. I didn’t really have a plan–I just wanted to car to go across the screen. The movie kinda wrote itself, so yes, the plan did change. car…

I watched a video in which the parents were talking about gifts and since they didn’t have a job they couldn’t get very much gifts. But the girl was taking lots of things to her room. The rest of the family followed her and saw the huge mess she made….

Recently in history we have been learning about Jamestown and we made a stop motion about it in a app called Clayframes that we use to make stop motion videos. Isn’t it weird that i put two stop motion videos up one right after another?

Last year (December 2014) I made a stop motion video about sea anemones. I do not think we ever posted it…. Anyway, here it is! I also made a paragraph about it in the post GIFT Stories: LEGO Class.

We needed a new table, so we went on a drive looking for one! Photos taken along Lake-Cook Road and U.S. Route 14 from Algonquin to Barrington. It kinda looks like the water tower is on the trees! Algonquin, Illinois I love the contrast between the building and the sky! Algonquin, Illinois The first place we went to didn’t have a table we liked, so we kept driving! Lake Barrington, Illinois Barrington, Illinois Then we went to a second store, and they had one! Barrington, Illinois We drove home, then Dad drove back to […]

One day, we were eating breakfast, and we looked out the window and saw not one, but two ducks! Throughout their visit, we realized that they were molting, and therefore couldn’t fly. Since Woods Creek, the nearest body of water, is about a quarter-mile away, we were surprised they walked all the way over here! In any case, we went outside to (from a distance) observe them and take some pictures. Here are my favorites! When we got out, they were resting. We played outside until they woke up. They crossed the street (safely, good) and headed towards the creek. […]

Boone Creek Conservation Area
Dad and I went to the Boone Creek Conservation Area. First he taught me about shudder speed and how if I slow it down and take a picture of something moving really fast, the picture is not blurry. Then we went on a walk! To me, the footprint looks like it’s on the moon!

Nauvoo
We visited Nauvoo!
I sang a song called “There are many temples in many lands.” while Dad went in the temple.
Here are some pictures I took:

Once we got home, I recounted all my experiences in this video:
Explorers Guess Who?!?!
Explorers Facts: Christopher Columbus traveled from Spain to North America. Marco Polo traveled from Europe to China on the silk road. He came back to Italy with spices and silk. The people in Italy liked it a lot. John Cabot traveled to North America from England. Hernando De Soto searched…

The Earth’s Crust Game
Mom and I read through a book about the Earth. We learned how the Earth’s crust moves, what volcanoes and earthquakes are, and what all of that means for us. We made an “Earth’s Crust” board game.
Landing on a volcanic eruption costs you two tokens, and the squares before and after it are labeled “volcanic ash” and cost you one token. A “sleeping volcano” earns you a token. Landing on an earthquake also costs you a token.
We made questions from sentences from the book. When we land on a blank space on the board, we have to answer a question. Right answers get us more tokens.
Whoever has the most tokens when we’re done playing the game wins!

He’s a confused whale. He doesn’t know which way to go.
