Uh, ok... Sam can read! Who knew?!?!?!


So, Carrie is sitting at the kitchen table reading her Bible (People Magazine) and Sam gets up on her lap and points to the page and says "that's IN". Carrie looks down and sure enough she is pointing to the word "in". OK, maybe it's just a fluke. Very funny coincidence. Right? Wrong!

Next she points down to the page and says "that's ON" and sure enough she is pointing right to the word "on"!

I have been working with her on and off reading Dr. Suess's Hop on Pop, but she really didn't take to it the way Alex did. We also do alphabet flashcards, but she gets bored easily and starts to goof off. I guess in Pre-K, they are learning letter combinations at the same time they are learning letters!

Now if Carrie were only reading something worthwhile...

Ah, the joys of site words. But please, stay away from flash cards if at all possible. Find fun ways to do it instead so she's more engaged.
