July 14, '19 should go down in history as Sports Day. The Wimbledon'19 final and the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 final, both in London, were 2 matches where none of the participants were actually winners or losers. Both were masterclasses in learning to hold your nerve and not give up in the most tense situations either. And my family enjoyed them both as we did not feel the need to get up early today. This flexibility is something I have come to covet about homeschooling.
This week I initiated him to LCM in Mathematics and he wrote the story spines for the Toy Story and Spiderman movies he watched. Story spines are a great way to try and ferret out the gist of any story and over time, realize that the architecture of great stories is actually quite simple. To be a good storyteller, you take a simple premise and then build layers around it thereby making it interesting but retaining the simplicity that we as humans value.
