Mind Trick

General 

Elliott was really good after school today.

Activities

After school we went straight to Elliott's Clarinet lesson and he said he'd had a good day. After his lesson we went home and he did more Maths homework and had ham sandwiches and a fig roll for tea before it was time for Whistling Woodwind which he also enjoyed. After Whistling Woodwind it was time to go back home again and he had a bath, brushed his teeth and got ready for bed. Then we searched online for a monologue for him to learn from a play and we found one called "Mind Trick" by Joespeh Arnone (https://monologueblogger.com/mind-trick-drama-1-minute/) that we thought was short enough to learn in the time and dramatic enough. We broke it in to chunks to learn and he began learning the first chunk. Unfortunately he also got quite upset about homework during this again but we talked about staying positive (and also why hadn't he asked for help earlier to find a monolgue). He should be fine though if he remembers to just learn it a chunk at a time. After he'd learnt the first chunk of the monologue he read more of his school book "The Killing" by Robert Muchamore. Then it was time to go to sleep.
