Year in Summary

This has been a fun year with a lot of different subjects I've been learning about.

I started learning a lot about the Normans and their history. I've always thought William the Conqueror was pretty cool!

Then I got into Chemistry starting with a Khan Academy class and then Coursera and finally a BYU Independent Study Course and AP chemistry.

Chemistry also got me to learn a lot of Algebra which I needed to solve most of the problems so now I know algebra pretty well.

After studying chemistry which is now I think one of my very favorite subjects along with history and art, I also studied AP Biology and took both AP tests. I was the youngest kid taking the tests, but I felt good about them.

For my Birthday this year I got a Lego Mindstorms set and this fall I am going to do Lego League with some friends which should be fun as well.

Other than that I've done a lot of reading and have started reading classics. I really liked Sherlock Holmes and the way he uses science and observation to figure out mysteries. I just started Don Quixote and we'll see how that goes.

I'm taking an drawing class too, but mostly I like to draw portraits and cartoons.

For music I did a lot of piano songs and played in church.

And of course I am still playing soccer which has been a lot of fun. Our team went to Pingree this year and while we didn't win it was still a great year.
