  If you procrastinate, please raise your hand. If you aren't raising your hand, you are a pretty rare person. Kudos to you. Skip this post and do your homework. If, like me, you are an ultimate procrastinator who never seems to have anything on schedule, welcome to this post!    Recently (as in maybe 5 minutes ago) I decided that I should start planning out my work in order to get more done. The thing is, I have a planner for what time to start things, but where in that dinky little space am I gonna write what I'm going to do for each subject? Hmmmm...   With that little dilemma in mind (Hey! Let's create a Truth Table for that!) I logged on to Google Docs (A.K.A. Life saver) and created this handy little chart.  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nUaCK0XmQI3UEJaHWhe-3H1ATpleaHBBSyn6kXxn5Ew/edit?usp=sharing   Note that I do not speak of "Handy" from experience. I haven't tried it yet. If you use it, let me know how it works in the comments! Let...

One of my favourite subjects in Challenge B is the Science. During the second semester, students read "Defeating Darwinism by Opening Minds," by Phillip E. Johnson. I highly recommend it.   Anyway, as well as reading this book, the kids have to outline each chapter. One of the ways that I prepare for outlining is using "THE HIGHLIGHTING SYSTEM" *enter dramatic music here*   I did not come up with the highlighting system, some other amazing human did, but I find it very helpful. It also helps me take note of my favourite things about the book. https://members.classicalconversations.com/article/how-be-good-reader-highlighting   The above link should take you right to the site that saved part of my life. Enjoy, and good luck with your highlighting!   P.S. If you can highlight, but can't outline, I will be creating an article on how to outline. Once I figure out how I'm going to go about doing that anyway. Bye!

I don't know about you, but I know about me. I have trouble with the 5 common topics. I NEVER. KNOW. THE. QUESTIONS. TO. ASK. I can think of them any time I'm not doing my work, but when I need them... Gone. I decided to compile a list of the Challenge B subjects and write down the questions for each one. That way, you can pull them out whenever you need to! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pgYWeGvC6zSS0pOvwsM8pdz34nrzHdBnuMaTxs536R0/edit?usp=sharing Please do not claim this as your own. It is okay to show it to other people, as long as I get due credit.

Hey everyone! I may have mentioned in my Introduction that I would post things for other CC levels as well as my own. This one is for the level before mine, Challenge A. In Challenge A, my favourite part was when we studied fallacies. This link will take you to a poster that has a list of all the fallacies. Or most of them. I'm not sure. https://fivejs.com/free-printable-logical-fallacy-poster/ I finally found out how to make it a link, so hopefully you can click on it instead of copying and pasting it into the browser. Yay!

  In Challenge, you write a lot. Not just papers, but stories as well. When you write, you want all your grammar to be correct.   The link below will take you to an article that has different words that sound or look similar, and which instances to use them in. Hope it helps! https://www.grammarcheck.net/writing-mistakes-native-speakers/?pp=0&epik=v%3D1%26u%3DX-jM7rwVpzOTYlNcHkV9bDw-eZdeOnlZ%26n%3DPZGMIgYNPiUAscsqzHPutw%3D%3D>

Hi Everyone! This post is just a bit of an introduction to what this blog will be for. My name is Kat Nordstrom, and I am in Challenge B for CC. On this blog, I will post anything that I find helped me during Challenge. If you are in Challenge A, I, II, III, or IV, I will be posting things that you might find useful. Hope these posts help!
