Summer's Over for Ryan and Katelyn

We decided to end the summer early for Ryan and Katelyn. In order to keep them on track for first grade, I ordered a set of the readers that they were using in kindergarten.

Reading didn't come easy for Ryan, but I was happy to see that he'd retained everything he learned in school. He's almost done with his first reader- and since it isn't a school assignment, he will sit and read without a battle. PROGRESS!!!!


Katelyn was thrilled! She was disappointed at the end of the school year that she hadn't finished the series. She's convinced that if she finishes the readers, she'll be the smartest girl in the first grade. She's already zipped through two readers since Monday. She's going to be mad when we practice penmanship tonight...

  1. Show her Grandma McKoy's writing if you have a sample of it, she had beautiful penmanship.
