You can get electricity from the sun using solar cells. That means it is possible to reduce greenhouse gas production by using electricity from sunlight. But many things can affect the amount of electricity from solar cells. Here are some things that will do that: trees, houses, clouds, time of year, and where you live in the world.

8th birthday…so sweet and sassy.
AMS won a spa basket at the school raffle! The principal announced it on the school’s PA system and when she heard her name, she whooped it up and screamed! Her whole class screamed! The principal then asked her to come to the school office and claim her price – when she saw it, AMS yelled “Sweet Jesus!”. The principal and school staff got a huge kick out of it.
This year, AMS made her Halloween costume as part of a project for school. She chose an Ohlone Native Girl costume. With some research, she was able to copy the style.
Of course, she had to wear the costume to the annual Halloween parade at school.

The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is fetch water from the stream and fill the water basket in our tule hut. My parents tell me I was born nine seasons (years) ago. I will show you how to make clothes in the Ohlone style.

Suddenly it’s here – third grade! What happened to summer. Tempest fugit! Back to homework… back to old friends and meeting new friends. Back to hard work and fun. Back to learning so much. Time to show off my new clothes!
“Seize the day, dad!”
Clouds are beautiful
They’re pearly white I can see
They taste like whipped cream.
