We finally moved on to week 10!! After a ton of practice I decided that Boo was finally ready to move forward with her reading. She's shown a lot of improvement over the last 3 weeks and she starting to remember all her new sounds more easily.
This week we learned the /ay/ sound and the /igh/ sound. She did pretty well with these 2 new sounds. She also started making another "Animal Tales booklet," which comes with the student sheets. She has to read a sentence containing her new sounds, copy it into her book and draw a picture.
For art Boo learned to draw a hen.
This week our manual said to "make a Bible times costume!" I love all the fun things that My Father's World comes up with. I try to do at least some of the fun things, even though it would be so much easier to skip them and just do the basics. The fun things really make this curriculum great though. Now that she's getting all of these phonics down and learning to read on her own, Boo will soon be introduced to her own bible reader with daily reading assignments and a bible journal that she will will be starting. This week's project was to introduce the fact that people in the bible days dressed and lived differently than we do today (of course Baby bear had to try it on too.)
