Activity 17 Keep a journal
- We are all currently a part of a living history. Our children are all a part of this, and it will be talked about for generations to come. Schools are closed; sports are cancelled and people are social distancing on a global level. Have your child keep a journal over the next while documenting their experiences. This can be handwritten, typed, shown in photographs, drawings, in a video journal, etc. In their journal record events, day to day activities, feelings, and thoughts. As family members, let them interview you, be a part of it. When it’s all over save it in a safe place, that way they can share it with their children and grandchildren. Help them create a tangible, primary source of their own history.
- Every once in a while I will ask that a journal entry be posted on Freshgrade
- This would be a great opportunity to talk about different types of writing that there are and why we write
- You can also discuss the writing process and revising vs. editing
