Super Reader In The House

Katie started Kindergarten this year. She has loved school and loved learning. She is so excited that she is learning to read. Each month she brings home a chart to fill out and if she reads 20 books that month she gets coupon to get a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut. If she completes this chart for each month they are in school at the end of the school year she gets a dog tag saying she is a Master Reader. So currently we are working towards that goal. This week Katie brought home a Super Reader prize, which means she has read 4 books by herself in class. When I picked her up she was so excited that she earned her Super Reader prize. I am so proud of her and how fast she has learned to read. Now that she can actually recognize words all she wants to do is read.



Here are a few pics of some of the work she does in class. They write words and then draw a picture of the word. I love to see her creativity in her pictures.

Here she had to count the dots and then cut and past the correct number to the acorn.

I am so proud of Katie. She learns so fast and love to do everything the right way. That is probably going to be a downfall for her as she gets fustrated when she doesn't learn something fast enough or if she doesn't do something correctly the first time. We are trying to help her understand that mistakes are okay as long as you learn what you did wrong.


We love you Katie and are so proud of you! Keep up the good work!

Way to go Katie!! Keep it up!
Oh and I love that you are blogging more, even of they are only short ones. You can still do one with pictures and no words. Those are the easiest!
