I bought workbooks for Ethan and Matthew to work on threw summer vacation. These books are supposed to help them retain what they have learned the past year and hopefully help them to be ready for the next school year. I haven't done this before but knowing my boys and how long it takes them to get back on track after school starts I decided to do this.
So far it has been like pulling teeth. Today Ethan got his book out without me telling him to and he did his 2 pages without any problems. This made me feel so proud. Seeing him be able to do the work without any help from me. Then it was time to help Matthew. He didn't want to work on his book but once he started his page he breezed right threw it.
I bought this book, Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons" to try and help Blake learn to read. My other boys have had a really hard time learning to read the way that schools teach them and I have seen my nephew reading so well I decided that I would try the book. So far the book has been really strange if it weren't for seeing the proof in my nephew I probably would of stopped by now.
Oh the fun things that I do for my children so that they can have better lives.
As a reward to working I have promised them that I will take them to Boondocks. They love it there!!
wow this is a really short post compared to the others I have done before.
