Working with Isabel on the "A" sounds this morning was an adventure. It went like this:
"Armadillo reads a, a, a (put the little dot over the a for the correct sound :)"
"A reads a, a, a."
This portion was successful, it turned hilarious at this point...
"Listen as I tell you a word. Can you hear the "A" sound?"
"The first word is...Are?"
"No."
"All"
"No."
"Line"
"Yes."
"Bug."
"Yes."
"Ark"
"No escutzo nada." (Spelling is her accent. Translation: I don't hear anything.)
Me completely cracking up..."Great now I get the wrong answers in Spanish too."
Back at it....
"Draw."
"I don't hear nothin'!!!"
OK, let's try picking the right word out of the sentence.
1. Noah's Ark is a good Bible story.
She picked out every work but Ark.
2. Do you like to draw?
She answered the question, "Yes!"
7. Do not touch a broken jar!
Her answer, "Why?"
After that we all lost it. And I think it's safe to say everyone enjoyed class today!!! And, yes, we actually did get a lot accomplished.

Noelle and Isabel could be twins!! She so doesn't get picking out sounds. Or at least, she can't pick out the sound of the week. She will pick out other sounds and her expressions make the day. Sometimes I have to have the other kids leave the room because they are laughing so hard at her that she becomes a comedian.
