Reading

Bevan has been working on some reading skills.  He is using a website called www.readingeggs.com , which is Australian based and does Phonics and some sight words with lots of guided activities.  He enjoys it, I think he thinks it is a game and so he often asks to play.  He does sound proud of himself when he reads something like “I am a cat”.

Often he’ll be sloppy and answer wrongly , but some skill and recognition will be sinking in anyway.

He is wanting to use the computer so often now that I am getting an old one fixed up for him to use so that we don’t have to share one with him.   He is quite savvy with the pc, and knows how to mouse.  He can even type out his name in lower case, spelt correctly, with no help from me.  He hasn’t tried to hand write his name yet.
