Home work 6 jan 09

It was not completely smooth, that transition from dinner table to work. We returned to working on Julia's table in the computer room. Julia fidgeted a lot and complained a few times about being tired. When she does this, I offer the the option of going to bed early. She takes this seriously and I mean it that way -- no punishment, just option. She did choose to go to bed one night last week when I really, really wanted her to do her work. LOL. Best laid plans . . .

Anyway, she decided to work and once engaged, she stuck to it.

1. reviewed math fact cards (1+1,1+2,2+1), and then drew a big fact sentence that we could put her little pets in. She could 'read' the facts and answer questions, but could not complete the facts.

2. reviewed sight words.

3. did a sort of spelling test using her sight words. She spelt many of the words correctly, and was also very interested in spelling them right.

4. worked on the 'th' sound.
