Justin's favorite reads for the last few months would be Scriptures, Top Tech Books for work, and Accounting 2010 (He has had a lot of fun with that class).
I have been reading and learning how to truly study and gain information from a variety of text books. Because of our dilligent effort to expand our knowledge, our home has books dropped in every location almost every day.
Here is the collection my nose has been buried in and why.
This would be the Horticulture and Livestock text I taught out of for Greenhouse and Animal Science. We became very good friends as I built powerpoints, double checked my previous understanding of the reproductive system, and wrote lesson plans.
These were second hand references for the Greenhouse, Animal Science, and Ag Biology classes. I checked them out from the ASTE library. You know you are serious when you study from multiple texts. :)
These are the books that kept me going.I am so grateful for the scriptures and know there is power in reading them.
The large blue one is a biography on Ardeth G. Kapp. What an awesome women. She also had the opportunity to student teach. I read a majority of this while I was sick in February. The other one "The Guernsey Literary and Potatoe Peel Pie Society," was the book of the month for book club. I highly recommend it to any one. That was a challenge, staying up on the reading for book club, but so fun. This month is Jane Eyre.
This isn't a book, but rather a publication. I have the wonderful opportunity to teach Relief Society on the fourth Sunday each month. I have had many hours studying and developing lessons from the words of the Prophets.
I am now excited to have time to finish reading the biography of Ardeth G. Kapp, Gone With the Wind, Jane Eyre, and anything else that catches my fancy. I may even head to the library and check books out. I have a renewed appreciation of the written word and am grateful books are so accessible for our learning.
