High School Weekly Warm-Ups
14 Weeks of hands-on, brains-on activities to get your homeschool weeks off to an engaging start.
Our semesters at the Academy hybrid homeschool are 14 weeks long, and I like to start each week with a little brain warm-up to get us back in big thinking mode. These are intended to be quick activities — I don’t usually spend more than 5 to 15 minutes on any of them (though I’m always going to let folks take extra time if they get really excited about something). I try to include a mix of activities, so some weeks I may ask students to brush up on a grammar concept or review a literary term that I feel could use reinforcement; other times, I’m asking students to develop arguments or just free write. This little bundle of warm-ups includes assertion journal topics, grammar and literary term reviews, argument building, and other activities.
