Phonics: This week we did lessons 111-115. The focus was on the 'long a' sound and silent e, as well as the 'soft c' and 'soft g' sounds. I thought it would be hard for Govinda, but he caught on very quickly, and the second time he read the reader, The Ape and Cake, he read the 'long a'/'silent e' words without any hesitation. I'm excited about how well he is reading now. McRuffy is working really well for us. We got to play a new game, Reading Baseball. Wiggle Worm is still his favorite, but it was fun to learn the rules of baseball with 'long a' words being pitched.
Math: We did lessons 76-80. It was mostly just review and practice of everything learned recently; counting tens and ones with rods and cubes and dimes and pennies, reading time to the hour, moving forward and back on the number line. The numbers 71-80 were added to our number line that keeps getting longer and longer.
