HollyS-Interesting insight about not enough focus on the 3 R’s in HOD. Note taken!
I feel like I have several WBs that we’ve been given over the years, so I’ll have to keep my eye open for if she seems interested.
Really she wants her own chapter book! I remember when DS was 3.5 we started doing a chapter book RA at bedtime, so I told her when she is 3.5 (in June) we can start Paddington. She is really excited! She also does do some writing per her own request. A few days ago she was coloring with DD1 in a coloring book and announces, “Mommy, I can write a U” then proceeded to do so. I guess the thing is that I feel like she is getting so much stuff naturally that I don’t really need to work on it. She can also already identify the letter some words start with after hearing them….like I tell her to find the Monday for her calendar and she says MMMMMMmonday so it starts with M!
I feel like with the CM way of doing preschool you are waiting to intro stuff, and if she learns all letters, sounds, writing stuff, etc, then what will we have left to work on when she’s 4 and 5?
