Katharine's Writer's Block

How often do we play? I remember from my fundamental education classes a theory that promotes learning through play. The gist of it is that the learner drives their own learning experience and ultimately gains rich benefits in personal skills as well as academic knowledge. Montessori schools/education utilize elements of this approach. Play-based learning is easy to imagine and facilitate in young grade levels. The education experience becomes more formalized for older or adv

After the Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz got a brain, I wonder how much he relished opportunities like research and essay-writing that challenged his new intellectual chops. We might not always share the same enthusiasm for those activities, but they’re forms of mental exercise as necessary as physical activity is to the rest of the body. Some foundation and regular practice can be helpful in areas of life beyond the class assignments as well.  I hope my Essay Help has been foun

I recently learned the old show, Mythbusters , is one of my husband’s favorites. He was home more often over the summer for reasons I’ll keep private and discovered it's available on Amazon Prime. So streaming his old favorite show was one of the ways he liked to pass time and how we’d spend some nights together. For those unfamiliar, Mythbusters was a science-oriented program that ran on the Discovery Channel from 2003 to 2016. In each episode, hosts Adam Savage, Jamie Hynem

The act of handwriting-- cursive  or otherwise--seems like a dying art that’s fallen to the omnipresence of computer technology. Which is a shame considering how penscript is still prevalent and offers good benefits. However, keyboarding, touch typing, or simply typing, is nothing more than the act and skill of writing with a computer and is not without its own merits: Typing can be efficient.  Pushing buttons that correlate with letters or characters takes less time than scr

Millennials, like me, grew up with some unique cultural experiences. While we indulged in the earliest, if not the best, years of cartoons, video games, internet, and music, we also read books to earn our own pizzas. Millennials, like me, remember this as the Pizza Hut Book It Program (or just the Book It Program). The premise of the Book It Program was simple (and free): reading goals are set between October and March for students between preschool and sixth grade. Goals can

Just choosing a topic is one of many essay writing problems. Here's some help on how overcome it! How do I decide what to cook? The things that either I or my husband like are a good place to start. I narrow down the options further based on what ingredients are in my cupboards, what time I have on-hand, or what the occasion might be. For example, on workdays, I usually have just enough time in the mornings to put together some cereal, oatmeal, or eggs. While on Saturdays or
