Week #8 Review

Well this really would be week #8/#9 review... he did two weeks' worth this week. Every book was "more, more!" The only thing we haven't finished for the second week is his handwriting (didn't want to push him there) and his reading to me. Well that and week 9's memory verse. I didn't want him to have to focus on more than one per week no matter how far he gets in everything else. So we'll keep those on a once-a-week pace.

This brought us to week 10 which includes a book we hadn't purchased yet, so I had to make a purchase. But then to get free shipping I had to add a few more books. Oh darn

Earlier this week Matthew was reading from one of his books. Sometimes it's hard to know if he actually follows the story when he's reading it because he's concentrating so hard on what he's saying. Well he was reading something about some chicks jumping into the pig pen and getting muddy. He stopped and said, "That's.... that's.... that's tewwible!" It was SO funny and unexpected and both Stephen and I started laughing. Then of course he had to do it every few sentences to see if he got the same reaction.

Today's favorite activity was identifying what were mammals and what weren't. He determined that Mommy, Daddy, Ashlyn, Jessica, Isaac, Ethan, Matthew, and Linny (from the Wonder Pets ) are mammals. He thought that was the coolest thing. Oh that he might always be so easily entertained!
