My son is such a clever little boy
After watching beachin's grand-daughter, Kat, do the "Teach Your Baby to Read" program, I started it with Evan. I do the system she showed me, which Evan loves! Then, we change gears with some silly songs. Then we do 5-10 min of sign language and 5 minutes of traditional Dolch Sight Words.
Well, he's got Days of the Week down, OK at Months of the Year, needs work on his colors, can recite and sign most of his alphabet as well as most of his vocabulary words, count 1-20 and do simple adding, OK with most of his colors, really good at recognizing animals, good at matching and sorting, but sometimes gets triangle and rectangle confused, and tonight he did ALL of his sight words! All of them! I didn't expect him to get them right this fast. I'm going to have to add some more to the word set. I'm working on the Pre-Primer words now with the intent of going on through the Primer words. We'll see how it goes. He likes to do it, so hopefully we can keep it fun.
