See? Colouring saves the day again!
Sitting down with the colouring sheets seemed to hlep her a bit to get her grumps under control. So we moved swiftly on from them to 2 hours of Hama therapy. She half filled a big circle board and I did a Catherine wheel wich I will fuse tomorrow probably. I may even take a pic of it.
After that she did the final part of SL K’s lang. arts week 2. So she’s now written out most of her address and has been introduced to the concept of abbreviations, house numbers, street names and towns in addresses. Sounds lame but actually being told that and having written it out she now can say her address properly and understands what she is saying. give us another 2 or 3 years and we will be finished with LA K!!!
She’s also read one of the RAZ level aa (dead easy) books to me today and got all excited about it. And she read the odd word or two in one of her Topsy and Tim books (hateful, boring, twee little books that she adores…)
By far the highlight of her day though was what arrived in the post…. “More Stories from Grandma’s Attic” sent by Merry but more exciting than just being a book for her in the post was…. Merry had written in it!!! Oh the excitement, a book written in specially for her!!! And from Merry who’s house she went to and HAD STORIES!!! Some days I wish I was excited about little things like she can be….
Good news
Actually, Microsoft is sort of a mixture between the Borg and the Ferengi.
