I made a block schedule! At Julia’s strong suggestion of course.

We did a really fun set of jumping routines, including squat jumps. Then we did a mindfulness exercise at the Zen Zoo called “Detective Duck”. If you ask me, all this mindfulness stuff is a bit quacky, but … jokes over — it wasn’t funny and I actually really like these sessions 🤪 Jonah’s says he felt like calm like when we were throwing rocks into Lake Tahoe 😍

The kids took a few hours to do their new LEGO builds

And then for creative writing I asked them to write about their LEGO sets and draw a picture. Jonah’s handwriting which had been improving recently, kinda fell off here, although he did correctly spell “flaps” on his own, which is pretty cool

Stoned octopus alert!

We finished the day with math workbooks, piano and reading, per usual. Kids are really on a roll with piano right now it’s been awesome. And Jonah’s reading is next level. Today he read Max Axiom to me, which is like 3rd grade
