Everyday, I build a list of creative activities to keep in reserve for rewards or for days when I have to balance teaching with a million other jobs. They are just little ideas that demonstrate our lesson plans for the week – when I fell sick during my last pregnancy, I was able to continue with lessons on good days while double-timing ideas into my book – then on bad days, the boys spent the day building historical forts and researching far away countries and then writing plays and stories set there – it was a tough time for me, but the boys thought it was my best work ever!
