Flexibility is Key

November 16, 2015.  RGHT, AAR, FLL, and HWT.  Today W did HWT pgs. 32-33 working with the letter i and sentences that had the letter i in them.  Next we moved onto Rereading The Bad Rat.  After he read outloud The Bad Rat I asked a few basic questions like what did the rat do, was the rat bad, and tell me about the story.  W was able to answer all of the questions.  He has requested the Word tic tac toe game.  Will try to play that one tomorrow.  His favorite story so far is Jam and his 2nd favorite is "Fox in a Box".  I will have him reread "Fox in a Box" again this week.  3rd up was math.  We did the next 1/3 of the lesson 87.  Last up was FLL.  The last half of lesson 57.  We finished up reviewing the verbs and then I wrote a sentence and he picked out (with some help) the noun and verb.   E started with HWT cursive.  He did the line of warm up on page 7 then he finished up p.8 and did a line on page 9. page 9 is a and c.  Next up was Math.  We did the next 1/3 of the lesson 87.   3rd was FLL.  The last half of lesson 57.  We finished up reviewing the verbs and then I wrote a sentence and he picked out (with some help) the noun and verb.  E also noticed that one of the words described  the noun.  So we included the adjective as part of the assignment.  E continued to work on the DORA assessment.  He did one more part. Last thing was reading 1/2 page in AAR with Daddy.

November 17, 2015.  Today W did tic tac toe reading with the green AAR cards, we finished up RGHT Math lesson 87 worksheet, and he did HWT pgs. 34-35.  He did half of pg. 35.
     E today finished up the DORA assessment.  Although he still is technically behind he has improved on the assessment in both phonics and phonemic awareness.  This tells me that AAR is the right program for now.  E also did RGHT math lesson 87 worksheet.  He did all but the last 2 questions.
     Tonight was math circle night at FSU.  They worked on Venn Diagrams, Bar diagrams, and data.  W participated while E hung back and listened and observed.  Overall it was good.
