January 23 is National Handwriting Day

 

Writing by hand is becoming a lost art as more and more people rely on computers, tablets, and smartphones. National Handwriting Day is a chance to celebrate pen and paper!

  • Write a friendly letter or thank-you note to a grandparent, cousin, or friend.
  • Write in your journal or diary about something unusual or special that happened this past week.
  • Copy a favorite poem, Bible passage, or inspirational quote. When finished, illustrate it, if you wish.
Please make sure that your extra credit choice is well thought out and neatly done.  This extra credit is due by the end of the school day on Monday, January 25, 2016.
