Small things

This is the first day, for quite a few days that I have come home without a headache. Since i came home i have acquired a headache - stupid body!

However, I think i had my nicest day so far today! I just didn't get stressed - i think that was because i actually got everything that needed doing done at the weekend. Bear was at home with his folks and I was at home with mine - I missed him muchly! :( However, I got loads of school things done. I had to colour in, back and laminate 'The Phonics Rap'. An example follows:

A(the name of the letter, 'Ay') say a (the sound of the letter eg in 'ants')

so:

A says a

A says a

Alligator(with arms in a jaw snapping action)

Alligator

a-a-a

Any I have (obviously) 26 of these cards (one for every letter of the alphabet) so that took a while. i was also making and laminating everyones name with a special picture on it! And planning etc - all very important!

So today it was a calm day - I showed one little boy how to go about writing his name - we're very advanced - i'm sure you can tell, and I swear I have never seen anyone so excited about anything. I wish I could be made so happy over such small things!
