The kids are doing pretty well in the reading area. They are supposed to read at least 15 minutes everyday for their “homework”. We try to make them read every night, but sometimes our busy life just gets in the way…or we get forgetful.
This night Anya declared that she didn’t like to read. Oh really? Is that why you stay up each night looking at books well past your bedtime??? I guess she’s not actually reading them…
Reading is just starting to become less of a battle. It is so amazing to see their little minds finally get it.
I used to read to the BA every night but it took her a little while for the whole thing to ‘kick in’. When she did though she just took off. Then she plateaued at about 8 and would only read Horrible Histories or Asterix comics……then she discovered Lemony Snickett and the Series of Unfortunate Events. Another plateau until she discovered ‘Twilight’:-D
She’s not like I was. I used to devour books. But then she is perhaps more socially competent than I was at the same age.
Love your photos.
