Alex is very interested in letters, words, and spelling her name, my name, daddy's name, her BFF Emily's name, as well as Emily's mom, Nicole. These are her favorite words to spell right now, though she is always looking at signs and posters and telling us what letters she sees. She is also getting very good at identifying the beginning sounds of words and even picking up words that she sees frequently. Her sight word vocabulary is growing every day!
Last night we did school time after dinner. Partly because mommy had a lazy afternoon with little motivation...and partly because she likes it when daddy can join us sometimes for school time. After my "planned" activities, she decided to take out the colored craft sticks and spell out her name...which then progressed through all her favorite names (see above). She needed a little help in figuring out how to get the sticks in the right spots for some letters, but mostly she did it all on her own, telling us what letters were next.
