Upgrade... Coming Soon AO1&3

Posted in AO2

Balance!  We are in a comfortable nitch in our school schedule.  With our AO2 books we cover 2 books/readings a day...  Mostly I read.  Lovebug insisted on reading Understood Betsy! 

On the horizon I can see this balance thrown way off!!  How to juggle all the AO1 schedule with Ladybug... and AO3 with Lovebug... hummmm.....

We are starting the upgrade...  with encouragement from Kathy we are jumping ahead with this new balance.  Lovebug picked three of her books to read solo.  Today she read Seabird and gave a great nararation!  We are doing more tandum readings... We are off to a good start that I pray smooths the way to next year.

Ladybug and reading...  Our wonderful start has hit a challenge with "e".  After a week of tryign to read the SSRW E book... I took a deep breath and knew we needed to move slower.  She's been happily readng the A book again... with much more speed and understanding.  Gradually we'll head into that new ground.  Now I'm treasuring my 5 year old.... and too soon she'll be reading to sissy!

btw...  Bloggers!!??  How do you read a blog?  Dana just mentioned G reader & I've been blown away with the ease of getting to sooo many blogs!!  Wow!  This is another upgrade!! 

The girls sleep!  We have a little rabbit in the back yard.  Our Goldfinch & Indigo Buntings have left fond memories.  Tonight hubbie acquired wood for my raised garden!!  I hope for tomatoes!!!  Grace!  ss

**Update:  G Reader is Google Reader  :)

For blogs like yours, I have your headlines posting to my Yahoo frontpage. That way I know when new entries appear.

I'm glad your babysteps into independent reading are going well so far! Mine is very much looking forward to choosing more books to read on her own for Y2 (although she may not be so enthusiastic when push comes to shove). She's even done her entire school day by herself once, in a pinch.
