Richard did very well with his sight words, counting by tens and reciting the days of the week. In phonics blending, adding, deleting and substituting syllables were introduced. Richard worked hard to read a story entitled, 'Jog with Me'. Without being asked, he named the genre and the setting. Richard practiced writing the letter Z and the number 9 today. The concepts of more and same as, along with one more and two more, were reviewed with pictures and manipulatives. Richard worked hard and did his best.
