Monthly review: June 2020
Posted: - Modified: | monthly, review
- I made a font based on my handwriting using FontForge, Python, Org Mode, and Medibang Paint.
- I drew with crayons and with my tablet. I tweaked my Krita workflow by remapping buttons. I sketched an overview of the Ontario Kindergarten 2016 curriculum.
- I made my journal more visual, and I updated my Emacs configuration.
- A- learned how to ride a pedal bike! She also worked on learning how to type with all fingers. We built lots of LEGO sets together by using the bricks we already had, and A- started to build the habit of tidying up. She liked listening to me talk in Tagalog. We worked on play skills and making sure both of us have fun. She played with Khan Academy Kids and Scratch Jr on the tablet, and she encouraged me to consult while she did so. She pretended to be a baby yeti and a plant. We spent some time browsing through Childcraft and the children's dictionary.
Next month, I want to get better at taking advantage of the space created by screentime and independent play, maybe by preparing for kindergarten.
