What occasions did you celebrate so far during this pandemic? Make a list. Choose 1 or 2 and explain how you celebrated this year compared to how you would normally celebrate. Which was better?

Interview a parent or another adult. Ask them what their biggest change has been and what they are most thankful for.  Ask their top 3 moments from this experience.

Choose any TV show or movie. Write the title, characters, setting, beginning, middle, and end.  Write an alternate ending for this show or movie.

Make a T-chart. Write a list of things you like about learning at home versus at school. 

What movies have you watched during the last 2 months?  What genre do you prefer? Make a list of all the movies you have watched this month and then choose 2 to compare.

Billie Ellish said “In the public eye, girls and women with strong perspectives are hated. If you're a girl with an opinion, people just hate you. There are still people who are afraid of successful women, and that's so lame.” Write a response stating if you agree or disagree with her and explain why.

Mother’s Day was this month. Take time to write a letter to your mom, grandmother, aunt or a special friend. Tell them why you are grateful to have them in your life.  Do something special to show you are thankful such as washing the dishes, helping cook a meal or giving them a special hug.

Read your book while doing a wall sit. How long can you do it for? Try reading while doing a plank. Which is easier? Try to increase your time for both. Write a summary in your journal of what you read while doing the wall sit and plank.

Pick a page from the book you are reading. Change all of the nouns to things you see right in front of you in your house, then read it aloud.
