This is my focus...I have just started to introduce addition to our counting, as of right now he counts to 50, can spell(if he takes his time and listens to the sounds) which he does excellent, and he is picking up on reading very well!! I think that since we read together all the time and he enjoys "reading" back to me he is a very willing participant. We are using Hooked on Phonics and that I believe is helping him tremendously! Now I just have to get him to slow down when he is talking and speak up so we can hear him and understand..lol!
Here is his beautiful handiwork in motion! His writing has improved tremendously! He is also getting his Bb's and Dd's right too! YAY! Today we are doing a science project of making our own Home-made Geodes, I think he will enjoy this:) Anyway posts pics later of the project!
Okay this one is to bring everyone up to date! As of right now I am focusing on JD's writing of the alphabet and counting to 50! Also a new program added to the mix is Hooked on phonics reading Level 1 in Kindergarten...which he is grasping quite nicely:) However my biggest proud moment is yesterday we did a review on writing the letters Aa through Dd I decided to test him on sounding out and spelling what he hears, the 2 words were bad and cab, HE DID AWESOME!!! He was able to sound out and figure out the letters making those sounds and wrote his first 2 SPELLING WORDS!!!!!! I know I am bias but this is a huge thing for me and him and US as a family! Also at night after I read him a story he wants to read it back to me. He blesses me more than he could even image and I am so happy that he WANTS to read. He still might not like to COLOR but he is getting a LOVE for reading and that is okay with me. Sorry I have been slacking with posting on here, but there is my updat:) Have a great weekend! XO
