He Needs Spell Check and His Teacher, Probably Some Smelling Salts

My two youngest children are learning like crazy this year at school. They have both learned how to read. And T. is beginning to spell.

They are like little sponges.

It's amazing to watch how quickly they catch on. One day they can barely sound out the word cat and the next day they are reading books to me.

It is quite awesome.

T. had homework last week that involved measuring area. He was to draw a shape and then place pennies within that shape. Next he needed to record how many pennies were able to fit inside the shape.

He wanted NO help in spelling any of the words.


Next he needed to compare the pennies to the space quarters would take up. Could he fit more pennies in the shape or more quarters?



Is it me or does that "n" seem to illustrate his answer?
