Just when I really start to worry about the kids, something happens to make me wonder what I was ever fussing over. Lately it has been Alex and spelling. My insatiable reader and all around freaky bright kid couldn't be bothered to spell. When he did, it was much worse than I thought it would be for such a strong reader. I let it go. We didn't memorize the Dolche word list. I didn't test him. We just kept on doing what we were doing. Then one day I walked into the kitchen and found this. He decided the fridge was a lost and found box for food. Playing with Izzy's magnetic letters he did it all on his own.
Now, if he could just spontaneously write a few sentences down for me in lower case I'd be over the moon!
