When I went back to school after Christmas, I had two new students waiting for me.
They had just came to Wendell from a much warmer climate.
There was a older girl and a 8 year old boy, who had never been to school.
They said he was sick, and that they didn't want to pay for his schooling.
Since he has only missed 1 day of school, I am thinking that they were just babying him.
We started at ground zero.
Then I dropped it down, when I realized that he didn't realize that letters make sounds.
A couple of weeks ago, I told him, " You will read and you will do it before Spring Break."
Well, I am happy to say He Reads!
You should know that is always a miracle to me.
I am a true believer of Phonics.
My life at work revolves around phonics activities.
Here are some of my favorites.
And my go to game, 'Go Fish'. We play it with letters, sight words, and numbers.
