Today with Danny we worked on the short letter a. We started by looking at picture cards that had pictures and sounds with the short letter a. They were pictures such as cat, mat, bat and rat. I had him pronounce the short a with the the other letters. He showed me how he holds his pencils and he wrote a couple of letters down. We started reading a book about Otters which he seemed to like. He wanted to play the color and numbers game that I usually bring but I had forgotten it at home so I promised him I would bring it next Friday.
