Bella has some very normal struggles when she is not able to achieve the goals of a particular skill, such as parting a mannequin head of hair, perfectly from the first or second attempt.
To preempt resistance and reduce frustration, I advise her before starting any new skill that it looks like it should be very easy, but in fact, everyone finds it is much harder than it seems.
Bella still gets frustrated with herself at times, but I will continue to encourage her to be kind to herself when learning something new and recognize the milestones she achieves as soon as they are apparent.
Bella began the class with a review of the last class. She then worked on making notecards from her 55 essential verb list. She needs to complete them and study them while she is in NY to prepare for a quiz when she returns to school.

Bari substituted for for Spanish II. (Bella also received her American History work folder to complete while she is in NY, too.)
Bella discussed yesterday's chapter reading from The Escape from Camp 14. She then wrote a short essay describing how the protagonist, Shin Dong-Hyuk, represents the durability of the human spirit and its
ability to survive the harshest conditions.
