Repetition

Repeating the story over and over is one of the concepts of FIAR.  So today, as we were reading Lentil, I decided to just reinforce onomatopoeia.  There are a lot of really good words in the story line, like slurp and shlursh.  Good stuff.  We were also gifted with some phoenic books from a friend that feature Scooby Doo.  We've been having fun reading those the last day.  And in some of them, I say the sound purposefully wrong, for instance ch I say cuh huh instead of the chuh sound.  or suh huh instead of shh.

Lentil

For some reason Lentil makes me think of Yentl.  Go figure!  It was a fun book to read. We like McCloskey so that always gives a book a leg up. 
We went with the Social Studies lesson today and found Ohio on the map of the USA.  We're also watching the Learn to Read with Phonics dvd that we got from Netflix. 
Hannah still frustrates me to no end in regards to reading.  I guess I'm still not ready for her to learn at her own pace, which means that I should probably hold off a few more months.
