current students I wanted to come on here and make a follow-up video for you about the two stories that you heard Logan read that were Starry Messenger about Galileo the astronomer snowflake Bentley Wilson Bentley photographer so get a chance and their life work were similar and how they were so if you think about how you can come contrast some of the science and engineering practices that they use like developing model or planning an investigation using math you can also think about how to say I'll ask interpret data that I collected so think about those things also think about the moral of their life what lesson did they learn or what lessons can be taught through their work I wanted to show you the real snowflake this is a picture of Wilson Bentley and these were some of his actual snowflakes that he captured and some of the pieces that he published so they were white tree works of art they were all unique and individual and then there was a quote in the back of the book that I wanted to share with it it says the average Dairy Farmer gets up at dawn because he has to go to work in the cow yard but it is because I want to find some please come with do or spider web which to do is made into the most delicate ropes the Pearl I take my camera with me get down on my knees in the wet grass butter breath easy because I do this I can show these lovely things to people who never would have seen them without my help they will get their daily quarter milk all right other farmers will attend to that but I think I did something which is just as important and that's from USA Bentley so I thought I would share that in the back of the book that you heard I hope you enjoy those two stories that log and read to you and hopefully we'll be able to Morrison thank you
