Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Set aside a whole room if you have space. Add your classroom to an existing room if you don't have extra space. Choose an area without distractions. Pick a room without carpet or install floor mats. Paint Add fun decals to the walls if you don't want to paint.

Answer: If possible, it can be helpful to dedicate a whole room to homeschooling, as it keeps the mess out of sight and helps keep your kids on task. You can use a family room, den, basement, office, or even an extra bedroom. You may even be able to convert a shed with electricity into a homeschooling room. It's entirely possible you don't have the space to devote a whole room to homeschooling. If that's the case, try picking a central area, such as the living room or dining area. Choose an area where you can add some storage, so that you can hide school stuff away when your kids aren't working on it. Your dining area is a good choice since you already have a table in place for your kids to use. Even if your kids tend to spread out around the house to work, you should still have a designated area for keeping your school supplies. Pick an area that doesn't have distractions like a television, video game console, or the like. You want your kids to stay on task as much as possible, and distractions won't help with that! Try to pick a quiet area in the house that doesn't have a lot of extraneous noise. For instance, you may not want to put the room too close to the laundry room. Similarly, while you wouldn't want to cover up the windows, you may want to face the classroom away from the windows. Let any other household members know school is in session by hanging a sign on the door. That way, they won't barge in! Homeschooling can get messy, especially if you're crafting or cutting up paper at all. By choosing a room without carpet, you can sweep up most debris, and if something like paint spills, it's much easier to clean up. If the room you want to use has carpet, consider pulling it up. You may find hardwood or tile underneath. If it's concrete, you can even just paint the concrete. If you find subfloor, you can put in laminate or another cheap and durable flooring solution. Alternatively, try adding plastic office floor mats. These have spikes that go into carpet to hold them in place and provide a hard plastic surface on top. one or more walls with bright, happy colors if you can. You and your kids are going to spend a lot of time in your homeschooling room, so you might as well make it cheerful. If you're allowed to paint the walls in your home, try choosing a bright accent color for one or two walls, then paint the other walls a more neutral color. You could pick a creamy yellow for sunshine effect or a bright purple if it's your kids' favorite color. Stick up wall decals of animals, flowers, the alphabet, or any fun theme your kids will like. Wall decals make it easy to change out the theme, as you can just peel them off and stick up a new set when you're tired of the old ones. You can find wall decals at craft stores or online. If you want something a little more permanent, try stenciling the alphabet and numbers on the walls, or having your kids paint a mural together.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make tasks fun. Give choices. Create a routine. Reward good behavior.

Answer: Since small children are constantly making messes and dirtying their clothes, it's easy to feel like your house is always a wreck. If you want your child to help you keep things tidy, make chores or simple tasks into a game. Avoid just telling your child that he has to clean something up. You may need to help him or get him started. You can also make challenges or chores into races where you compete. For example, get a large bucket and help your child toss toys into it. You might encourage your child to find all of the blocks or balls to throw in. This will help him learn to sort and makes cleaning more interactive. Make chores a competition between several kids. This will make it seem more like a game. Kids like feeling as though they have some control or power over things. If you give your child an option, he'll feel as though he's in control of the situation and he'll be less likely to disobey or throw a tantrum. For example, you might tell your child he can select his pajamas to get ready for bed or he can pick out what story he'd like to listen to before bedtime. When giving small kids options, keep them simple or your child might become overwhelmed. Also, give your kid a chance to make the decision. If you're caring for several kids, ask "who wants to help me with this project?" Small children don't have a sense of time like adults do. But, they do have a sense of routine. Knowing what comes next and what to expect during the day can be comforting. You don't need to plan out detailed activities for every hour of the day. But, a loose routine will give your kid a sense of security which can improve his behavior and create good habits. For example, a loose bedtime routine might include getting pajamas on, brushing teeth, snuggling while reading stories, and bed. When handling more than one child, it can help to coordinate their nap schedules so that they both get rest and you get a break. Don't wait for your child to do something naughty before talking about appropriate behavior. Instead, catch your child doing something good and praise him for it. Kids respond better to positive reinforcement than punishment. Just be sure to use specific praises or your child might start tuning it out. For example, if your child wipes up a spill, you could say, "Good job cleaning up after your mess!" Avoid chastising one child by pointing out how good another child is. This will just make one kid resent the other one.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Pour all of the alcohol into a large container. Stir in the juice, fruit punch, and fruit slices. Serve the punch over ice.

Answer:
Empty an entire 750 ml bottle of Everclear, an entire 750 ml bottle of coconut rum, and half of a 750 ml bottle of vodka into a large container, such as a 5 gallon ((19 l) cooler. Mix the alcohols together with a long-handled spoon. Once the alcohols are combined, add 16 ounces (473 ml) of pineapple juice and 1 gallon (3.8 l) of fruit punch. Next, mix some orange and pineapple slices, and give the entire mixture a good stir to ensure that all of the ingredients are fully blended. You can substitute any juice that you like for the pineapple juice. Orange, grapefruit, and cranberry all work well. You can mix whatever type of sliced fruit you like into the punch. For the best flavor, match the slices to the juice, though. When all of the ingredients are combined, fill your glasses with ice. Use a ladle to pour the punch over the ice, and serve to your guests. If you find that the punch is too strong, you can mix in a fruity soda, such as lemon lime, to dilute it.
