MLK Day

We didn't take a break today. We worked on some projects. Zoe started on a five paragraph essay about DNA. She attended an online seminar about poetry with Michael Clay Thompson. (She is a huge fan and MCT is a celebrity in her world.)

We watched two really good episodes of Dr. Who, including Blink. We played Quelf. And I worked on my book while she played some fairy game online.

We listened to some news and talked about MLK, though not as much as we did last year when we watched his speech and did a whole unit on it.

  1. I had the girls watch a little movie on UnitedStreaming.com about MLK, and then I printed out this little timeline/picture sort for her to do We didn't attend any ceremonies or participate in the service day....which I regret.
    Glad you were able to get in some writing today. Sounds like a productive day for both of you.

  3. Quelf is amazing fun! How did you find it? Our company Imagination produce it...

    If you enjoy all of the hilarious fun it offers you can also now play it on Facebook.

    You can check it all out on www.quelf.com and it will take you from there.

    It will get your facebook friends involved in silly randomness as well.

    :)
