Good Morning Everyone,
It is now 2015!! In 5 short years, you will be graduating. What a thought, hey! I was thinking today that we could focus on a skill that is super-duper important in life. That is - SELF DISCIPLINE. Self discipline is basically disciplining yourself to do what you know is the best thing for you to do. For example, it means choosing to finish your work before you choose to play, eat or socialize. Is this easy? NO. Does this magically become part of your character when you "grow up"? NO. It must be practiced. Just like learning a skill in basketball, cheerleading, hockey, soccer, art, or any other skill, the more you practice it, the better you will get at it and the more it will become a good habit. Today, I am going to give you a list of things to do. They are all good, important tasks that will benefit you in a positive way, You do not have to do them in this order. Let's see how you do.
*20 minutes of typing practice
*20 minutes of journal writing
*20 minutes of free reading
*20 minutes of ixl.com Grade 6, Q. 5 - Lowest Common Denominator (Math Antics - Lowest Common Denominator)
*20 minutes of practicing your memory verse either by scripture typer or another method that suits your learning style
*20 minutes of out door play in the snow
*20 minutes of drawing or doodling or coloring while Mrs. Robideau reads to you
Besides a few extra activities, this will be our day. I am up for the challenge. Are you?
