🌅 Morning Routine

Early math today.

1. Eat breakfast at the kitchen table, put on clean clothes, brush teeth and hair, and make your bed. No morning shower.

🍎 Snack & stretch

Have water and a snack in the kitchen.

📺 Documentary — Cosmos

Watch in Infuse on the Apple TV. Cosmos S01E03 “When Knowledge Conquered Fear” (46m), then S01E04 “A Sky Full of Ghosts” (44m), with five minutes between: 95 minutes. Continue last week’s E01/E02, exploring how evidence changes what we know.

1. In the TV room, open Infuse on the Apple TV. Find Cosmos, season 1, episode 3, “When Knowledge Conquered Fear,” and watch it for 46 minutes.
2. Take a five-minute stretch, then watch season 1, episode 4, “A Sky Full of Ghosts,” for 44 minutes. Stop after those two episodes, at 10:30. No writing assignment.
3. If an exact episode is missing, read your current book for the rest of the block. Do not purchase or download anything.

⌨️ 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.

🍎 Snack & library check-in

Have water and a snack in the kitchen. Check the adult-accompaniment and weather conditions below before setting out.

📚 Library Trip — Claremont Branch

Adult-accompanied, conditional on an available adult and safe conditions. Thursday hours checked: noon–8 PM. Saturday’s forecast has a chance of light rain; recheck before departure. No adult or calendar booking is assumed.

1. Before departure, check in with the adult at home. Go only with an available adult, and agree to return by 4:40 PM. Make sure that adult can let you back inside. You do not have a phone, Watch, or keys.
2. Open “Walking directions: home to Claremont Branch” with your adult. Walk from 2838 Woolsey St to Claremont Branch, 2940 Benvenue Ave, using the displayed walking route and safe crossings. Leave at 2:40, allowing about 20 minutes each way.
3. At the library, spend 3:00–3:15 choosing a book. Sit and read for a full uninterrupted hour, 3:15–4:15. Bring your current book as a backup; you do not need to borrow a book to read there.
4. At 4:15, put library books back or check them out only with your existing borrowing arrangement, then walk home with your adult. Be home by 4:40, and check in.
5. If no adult is available, the route fails, the branch is unexpectedly closed, or weather is unsuitable, stay home: choose a book for 15 minutes, read for a full hour, then stretch indoors. This preserves reading, but the real library trip remains to be rescheduled; do not go alone on Thursday.

🧹 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.
