This month will be a bit different, starting this week. We are going to FOCUS on writing, writing, writing. Why? NaNoWriMo!!
Here is what I think is important:
Daily:
Bible---EVERY DAY, Do this FIRST!!
IXL---Do your practice problems.
Writing---Every day write about ONE of your topics. Write for an uninterrupted hour. Do not edit. Then see me so I can help you check your word count. Your goal is 3,000 words by the end of the month.
Weekly:
Where in the World? Wednesday---HELP!! Also, do your Character Study reading and reading from For You They Signed. This is not optional. It is a review item.
Nature Study---Once a week. This week, get that apple one done!
Sketch Tuesday---Get it done by Friday. Really.
Lego Challenge---Do over the weekend. Two cups of Legos.
Hopefully, you will see this as a break from the normal workload (no science, handwriting, critical thinking skills, grammar, typing, extra reading, etc.). If you plan to do some of the drawing during your down times (instead of reading or playing games), this will not be a difficult week for you.
Don't forget: We are having a birthday party for Ladybug on Thursday. Yay!! But you still have to do your writing and Bible for that day (I will let you slide on the math, though).
Love you,
Mom
