Ry has a book called Try Try Again. It's a Winnie the Pooh book where Pooh wants to learn how to write his name. In Ry's preschool class he has been working a lot on letter writing and letter sounds. While every mother thinks their child is the smartest I can't help but think Ry is! This morning he worked on his easel. He wrote the word Pooh, mom, dad, cat and bat. I have kindergarteners who can't write these words. I think what was equally exciting was the process he took to write the words. He stretched the words out and wrote the letters that matched the sounds he heard. (This is a strategy I teach my kindergarteners. It's called Stretchy Snake!)
