Wednesday, November 18, 2026

8:00 AM - 8:30 AM
🌅 Morning Routine
  1. Eat breakfast at the kitchen table, put on clean clothes, brush teeth and hair, and make your bed. No morning shower.
  2. Put a charged device, notebook, and pencil by your computer. You are ready when you have eaten and your class materials are set out.
8:30 AM - 8:40 AM
⌨️ Ten-minute typing
Keyboard practice, not an extra writing assignment.
  1. Open a blank document in your usual writing app, and set a ten-minute timer. Copy a short paragraph from your book carefully, using both hands.
  2. Correct your typing mistakes, then stop when the timer rings. Do not share or submit it. If the app fails, use the computer’s normal text editor.
8:40 AM - 9:00 AM
🧩 LEGO warm-up
Build a small doorway or tower with pieces you already have. Put loose pieces back before reading.
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM
📚 Read your book
Read in a quiet place.
  1. Take your current book and bookmark. Set a timer for this block, and read from your bookmark. If you finish early, choose another book you already have.
  2. At the end, bookmark your place, and put your book away.
10:00 AM - 10:15 AM
🍎 Snack & stretch
Eat a snack in the kitchen, have water, and stretch away from screens.
10:15 AM - 11:15 AM
🏠 Rain-safe movement — optional Willard Park walk
Saturday’s forecast includes rain; indoor movement is the default. Only walk if an adult checks current conditions are safe.
  1. Go only with an available adult. Dad is not assumed free; if no adult can accompany you, use the indoor plan.
  2. Before departure, open “Walking route — home to Willard Park.” Agree on this route: 2838 Woolsey St along Woolsey St and Hillegass Ave to Willard Park, 2730 Hillegass Ave, then back the same way. Return home by 11:15 AM. Make sure someone can let you back inside.
  3. Allow about 20 minutes walking each way, with a short park pause. Bring water and a weather layer, use crossings, and stay on the route. You have no phone, Watch, or keys; do not depend on contacting home while out. This is a walk, not a bike ride.
  4. If conditions are wet/unsafe, the route fails, you cannot get back inside, or the outing cannot happen, stay home: stretch and march indoors for 15 minutes, then build with LEGO until the block ends. Put the pieces away before the next activity.

11:15 AM - 12:00 PM
🧩 LEGO & board-game time
Continue your LEGO build, or choose a board game you already have. Put loose pieces away before lunch.
12:00 PM - 12:45 PM
🥪 Lunch in the kitchen
  1. Make a sandwich, choose leftovers, or prepare another simple lunch using equipment you already know you may use. Eat at the kitchen table or on the deck, without TV.
  2. Put your plate away when you finish.
12:45 PM - 1:45 PM
🎨 Art & drawing
Choose drawing paper and supplies you already have. Draw a scene or character for an hour, then put away your supplies. No copying, sharing, or upload is required.
1:45 PM - 2:00 PM
🇯🇵 Japanese practice
Open Duolingo on the device you already use. Continue one Japanese lesson for up to 15 minutes; stop when the block ends. Do not buy anything. If it will not open, read your book.
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
🧱 LEGO build & relax
Continue a LEGO build with pieces you already have. No extra Roblox practice. Keep walkways clear; leave ten minutes at the end to put pieces away.
3:00 PM - 3:15 PM
🧹 Cleanup & reset
Put away your book, LEGO, dishes, and project supplies. Clear your desk and floor. Keep unfinished classwork together; do not mark it complete just because the block ended.
