Jpoy85 Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Yesterday my dd1 (6yrs old) drew a tiger (Daniel Tiger on PBS for those that want to check it out). Thats not even the best part though! She wrote MadXBiX_(her name)_X I asked "why are there Xs" and she said " so you know its another word". I explained you dont need Xs, just space. :tongue_smilie: But then i congratulated her on sounding out "Made By ____" and helped her spell it correctly. I had her sound out what she wrote Mad vs Made. Reminded her the E makes the A say its name. Then i reminded her Y is tricky, it can sound like I. I just thought id share. I think its a break through in a way. I know it could just be normal for a 6yr old, but to me its pretty awesome. Im doing something right! :lol: Quote
