DECEMBER 11 INDEPENDENT
* You have no graded work or assignments over the break. But to keep your mind sharp, I suggest doing as much as you can of the following:
- Puzzles (300 pieces or more).
- Play or learn to play musical instruments.
- Follow recipes from start to finish.
- Go for hikes and nature walks. Write down what you observe.
- Construct car sets, lego sets, arts, and crafts.
- Join any acting clubs or put on your own performance for family or friends.
- Write scripts and creative stories.
- Practice lessons for a new language.
- Play board games and card games.
- Play organized sporting games. (But don’t just play. But improve your mental awareness as you play in your games. Learn new things about your sport.)
- Limit your technology usage. Give your brain and eyes a break from the forces of technology.
- Exercise (But learn how to exercise in the right way. There are plenty of programs through apps and Youtube. I would make sure it is kid and teen friendly, so you are exercising for your body type.)
- Read actual books.
