After a month of encouraging our students to keep track of their progress towards their goals we decided to make a project to help them visualize their progress. Knowing that writing stuff in a planner can be boring, Elizabeth came up with this great idea:
Chalkboard Calendars! Receiving some great donations of chalkboard paint and chalk markers, the girls set to work on making their own creation.
The day was a fun one. We ordered some pizza and wings and ate/painted/watched
Narnia and shared some of our favorite music with each other. Needless to say, my
music got booed and replaced with something a little more
enjoyed by the girls. Elizabeth's Florence and the Machine was received semi-favorably.
The girls were so excited about their calendars that they couldn't wait to take them home and hang them up in their rooms. Now here's to hoping that they remember to write their homework on it!
