Write your feelings in your reflection Journal. Be prepared to share with all the other youth.
• Find a favorite song by John Sebastian Bach. Play a portion of it in class (on an instrument or a recording). Record in your reflection journal why it speaks to you, what are your thoughts as you listen to this selection of music. Then come prepared to tell us why you liked it.
• Do a word study on recreation. Than find what you need to do to strengthen your personal life and how you recreate using prayer, going to the temple, and/or scripture study and set goals on how to improve your time and life while you enjoy recreation. By setting goals you are actually going to write them down. Goals must be measurable and attainable.
• In Hymn #113, pick a phrase and write a poem, write a story, or draw/paint a picture of what that mean to you. Be prepared to share with all the other youth.

Journeyman Class

1.Watch this video about Albrect Durer at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ypwx88-1

2. Find one poem of Emily Dickens that you can relate to.

3.   Try this etching processes: 

1.     Mix black paint and dish soap together in a small container in a 1:1 ratio,  I used the little paper bowls  you use to make muffins in. The more soap you add the runner it will be. 
2. Glue a piece of tin-foil to a piece of cardboard, card stock,  or other sturdy thing. 
3. Paint the tin-foil using the soap/paint mixture. Cover the whole thing. Allow to dry.This can take a very long time, to speed up the process I used a hair dryer. The tin foil curled but I smoothed it out and once cooled it returned to it's previous shape. 
4. Use a nail, pin, or other small object to trace a design picture onto the etching. Try using different materials to create different affects. Bring the finished product to class. 
5. Once your etching is finished be careful things can rub against it and smear your etching.  Eliza Ballantyne
