Leo's Homeschool Schedule

Tuesday, November 3, 2026

8:00 AM - 8:40 AM
🌅 Morning Routine
Your learner classrooms are checked. Three history sheets have completed CUPS print jobs; this is not a physical page inspection. Digital copies and Edpuzzle are checked only to their entry screens. Use the safe alternatives below if a resource stops you. No morning shower.
  1. Eat breakfast at the kitchen table; get dressed in clean clothes, brush teeth and hair, and make your bed.
  2. Check that your iPad and computer are charged. Put your notebook and pencil by your computer. You are ready when breakfast and these preparations are finished.
8:40 AM - 9:10 AM
✏️ Thursday Math & ELA preparation
A short review of your own class notes for Thursday, not a new homework deadline. Use paper and a pencil; no new website is needed.
  1. Open your math notebook to the latest fraction examples from class. Cover the answers, redo two examples with each step written out, and check against your notes. If the examples are missing, read the notes you have and mark one question for Thursday.
  2. For English, say one example each of past, present, and future tense: something that happened, happens now, and will happen. Then try “was reading,” “am reading,” and “will be reading” for actions in progress. This reviews Monday’s actual lesson.
  3. Finished means you checked two math examples and explained the tenses aloud. Keep the notebook for Thursday. Stop at 9:10; if already reviewed, read your book until then.
9:10 AM - 9:40 AM
🧩 Thursday Blender practice
Blender is the 3D-design app you used to make a couch with your teacher. This is practice from that lesson, not newly assigned homework.
  1. Open Blender and your saved couch or another existing practice project. Use only tools you remember from your lesson; do not download or buy anything.
  2. Practice one small change using edit mode or sculpt mode, such as a cushion detail with a cloth brush. Save a separate new version so your original stays safe.
  3. You are done when you can explain the change and have saved it. If you cannot find the project or tools, sketch a couch on paper and label the parts you want to improve; bring that sketch Thursday. Stop at 9:40.
9:40 AM - 9:55 AM
🎈 Gather science materials
Ms. Lindsay’s November 1 post asks for a balloon and an empty water bottle, plus the regular science notebook and pencil.
  1. Find a balloon, an empty water bottle, your science notebook, and a pencil; put them by the computer. Ask an adult to help locate supplies if needed.
  2. Do not start an experiment before the teacher guides it. Keep balloons and loose pieces away from younger children. If a supply is missing, watch the teacher’s demonstration instead.
9:55 AM - 10:00 AM
💻 Science Prep
  1. Click “Science learner classroom” in the class item below.
  2. Set a 9:58 AM alarm, and get the class materials ready. This block is only for login and setup.

11:50 AM - 12:15 PM
🥪 Lunch
Dad has in-person work and a lunch commitment; this is self-serve, not a promised shared lunch.
  1. Choose ready-to-eat leftovers, a sandwich, fruit, or yogurt. Use only kitchen equipment you are already allowed to use; hot cooking is not needed.
  2. Eat at the kitchen table or on the deck, not in front of the TV. Put dishes away by 12:15.
12:15 PM - 12:45 PM
📖 History catch-up — Born on the Water
Teacher-assigned reading and questions; check your own completed work first. One-copy print jobs for BORN ON THE WATER and THE NEW ENGLAND PRIMER completed, but the pages were not visually inspected. Work for this half hour; you are not expected to finish all older history work at once.
  1. Click “Born on the Water — teacher’s read-aloud.” The page is titled “The 1619 Project Born on the Water READ ALOUD,” by Reading Rocket. Advertisements can appear; ignore purchase links. Watch the teacher-selected reading, then use the one-page “BORN ON THE WATER” question sheet if available.
  2. Answer its four questions: describe life in the Kingdom of Ndongo with colors and images; explain “Ours is no immigration story”; say what kept the enslaved people going; and explain how the girl feels at the end. Use the story, not guesses. If already complete, go to the next step.
  3. For older unfinished work, click “History assignments” and find Lesson 7, “Reading in New England Colonies.” A primer is an early reading book. Read its alphabet image, then use “THE NEW ENGLAND PRIMER” sheet: compare your first reading books, explain the values taught with the ABCs, and describe religion’s role in Puritan life. This is learning history, not adopting those beliefs.
  4. If you need the digital alternative, “Born on the Water — digital questions” and “New England Primer — digital questions” open their exact “Copy document” screens. Reuse an existing copy or use “Make a copy” only if needed. Later slides and copying were not tested. If paper is missing and copying fails, compare the Primer alphabet aloud, then read your current book.
  5. If those tasks are finished, “Wigmakers video — Edpuzzle” leads to “5th Grade US History,” Amanda Smith, a Nickname field, and “Join open class.” Wigmakers make wigs. Your teacher says to use your name; no special nickname was verified. The video and questions beyond that gate were not checked. If it opens, answer the actual questions; if blocked, read your book.
  6. Stop at 12:45 and save your place. Completed paper answers belong in a photo uploaded to the matching “History assignments” task; digital answers use a document link there. Get adult help before changing sharing permissions. For Wigmakers, the teacher requests “Done” and “Submit Assignment” only after the video questions are truly complete. If unfinished, do not mark it done.

😌 Chill time — optional walk
This hour is yours to relax. No extra coding practice or homework is assigned.
  1. Choose something relaxing at home, such as LEGO, drawing, music, or simply resting.
  2. On Tuesdays you may take a neighborhood walk on your own. Before leaving, notify Mom where you are going and that you will be back by 1:45. Make sure you can get back inside when you return; do not assume you have keys or a phone.
  3. Finish at 1:45 PM so you have time for typing before Anime Fan Club.
1:45 PM - 1:55 PM
⌨️ Typing practice
Ten minutes of accurate practice; no account or purchase needed at the observed starting screen.
  1. Click “Typing — J, F, and Space.” The screen says “J, F, and Space — Screen 1 of 11” and asks for J with your right index finger.
  2. Follow the finger prompts for ten minutes; stop at 1:55. If the site fails, slowly practice finding F, J, and Space on your keyboard without looking for the same ten minutes.

2:30 PM - 3:15 PM
🚶 Neighborhood walk — notify Mom first
On Tuesdays you may walk on your own after notifying Mom. Be home by 3:15 PM. If you already walked during chill time, you may relax at home instead.
  1. Before leaving, notify Mom of your neighborhood destination or route and that you will be home by 3:15 PM. You may go alone on Tuesdays; an adult does not have to accompany you.
  2. Make sure you can get back inside when you return. You do not have a phone or keys, so do not rely on contacting home while you are out.
  3. Return home by 3:15 PM for your Dungeons & Dragons preparation. If you do not feel like walking, cannot notify Mom, cannot get back inside, or conditions are unsafe, stay home and relax or stretch instead.
3:25 PM - 3:30 PM
