Day 5

Friday May 13, 2011

Today started off normally with the boys dropping off their stuff and then heading out to the play ground, right after recess they came in lined up and headed off to Bounders, today I did not go with them but stayed and did some reading about the early signs of dyslexia and early detection. It is really nice to read about everything that went into my diagnoses when I was little. They boys came back from bounders and then we had language witch today was mystery reader. The boys get a clue each day and try to guess who is coming. This week it was a boys Grandfather who is visiting from Florida. After Language the boys had Tutoring, today the boy that stays in the classroom did some phonic cards and some reading and then went on to do some reading. After that he had to put picture cards in the right sequence to make a story. Then he wrote about it using his sequence words like first, next, after that, last and finally.  Next was math where we played logic games, the boys grouped off by twos and moved around to different stations. I was at the Set station a game that worked on sequencing. After math the boys headed home because it is a half day, like every friday. Today is different because there are parent teacher conferences so I am sticking around till 4 in the library to help watch kids while their parents are in conferences.
