N - "Mom, how old do you have to be to go to first grade?"
M -"Six."
N - "Then I'm in first grade!!!"
M - "No, you're still in kindergarten. You have to finish this year. In the fall you'll be in first grade."
N - "But I'm six now!"
Hmmm....I think I finally was able to explain "school years" to him, but this boy is so excited to be six!
We've been working through the Rod & Staff preschool workbooks this year. I let him work until he wants to stop which is usually at least 4-5 pages. It's a lot of coloring, cutting, & pasting. I like them & I think he does too. We've even started learning how to read recently using Alpha-Phonics. He's taking off on this as well.
Our little guy who is only going to turn 4 in June thinks he wants to graduate with his older sister this year! TOO FUNNY! They are so cute at these young ages.
ReplyDeleteHey those Rod and Staff workbooks look familiar. Hannah is on the "D" book right now and LOVING the many cut-and-paste crafts
