Monday

Start preparing for Thanksgiving (it’s never too soon) with the volunteer-run Homeschool Co-op’s online pie crust-making class. During this hourlong seminar, you’ll learn how to make one double crust or two single crusts from scratch. The organizers will send out a recipe in advance so that you can follow along from your kitchen. (The class is free, and attendance is limited to 100 participants.)

Tuesday

Brush up on America’s foundational document with the Philadelphia-based National Constitution Center’s comprehensive Interactive Constitution. Browse the full text, then dig deeper with blog posts, videos and podcast episodes addressing such questions as why, really, do we have an Electoral College? And how are voting rights lawsuits being decided?

Get the tools you need to teach your young child about what an election is and the voting process with PBS. The printable voting kit, best for ages 2 to 5, includes a Bingo game and “I Voted Today” badges to color, cut out and wear. For bigger kids, ages 6 to 8, take the civics conversation to the next level by having them host their own election at home and create ballot boxes. If your children are extra ambitious, you can even help them write their own news story.

Wednesday

Be carried away by three performances curated by the New York City Ballet principal dancer Tiler Peck. The series, called “A New Stage,” was filmed in September and is available to stream on CLI Studios, an online dance education platform. Ms. Peck stars in two of the three pieces, including “Petrushka Reimagined.” Brooklyn Mack and Lil Buck join her in this hip-hop infused interpretation of the classic ballet. In “Unusual Way,” Ms. Peck collaborates with the Broadway actress and singer Sierra Boggess. And finally, Syncopated Ladies tap along to songs by Ciara and John Legend in “Syncopated Ladies: Amplified.” The series costs $19.99 and viewers must create a free CLI Studio account to view. In addition to the ticket, you will get access to a handful of free dance classes each week.
