Nice Day here..
Allison -
Reading - Read ALL of Little Red Hen, with very little help, and with a great deal of fluency. And then after reading it, she said she wanted to read it to Meredith, so she read it twice, the second time with no help. I am so thrilled to see her [...]

All we did today was go on a field trip! We toured a local grocery store, discussing nutrition as we went. Allison didn’t learn much about nutrition (just wasn’t into it), but she did learn how to tell a boy lobster from a girl lobster. Very important. I also learned why we have been [...]

Took a snow day, lol. All we did today was piano, some cleaning of the house, a bit of art, and the girls looked through a stack of cool animal cards, which talked a bit about the animals.
Got an order from Rainbow Resource today. Included was some cool games and some arts and craft stuff. [...]

Super quick,

* Reading, lesson 75 from 100EZ lessons. Again another rough time! All this week. How come it can take her 15 minutes to read the 3-word title of a story, but when I get upset, she can then read the entire story in under 15 minutes??? So frustrating. I am thinking about re-thinking reading [...]

Allison:
* Reading, lesson 74, starting to shift from the marks that 100EZ lessons uses. She read a story she has read before, but without the marks. And this time, she got to ask me comprehension questions. She thought that was cool! (35 minutes - had a rough time focusing AGAIN!)
* Language Arts - lesson 4 [...]

Today was one of those days. Not horrible by any stretch, just off. But here goes anyway:
Allison:
