Planning our school year.
Jul. 13th, 2016 09:01 pm"So, let's see, Ana. We should do some sort of formal literature study this year. Hm. Well, we'll definitely be doing Julius Caesar, because that's showing at the New Vic and I got a discount on my tickets. And we should probably do To Kill a Mockingbird. What else, what else? Pigm- wait a minute."
That's the moment when I realized I was effectively recreating my 8th grade English curriculum.
So we're not doing Pigman. (Probably.) We'll have to find some other book with an insouciant young narrator. Right now I've got her doing The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, but I think I may need to corner her tomorrow and make sure she reads some more of it. She's been busy writing lately.
