Skill – Reading

I showed up with hopes of convincing Matthew about reading a different type of book for his daily reading and summary. To my surprise he selected four books from the library about military airplanes and other equipment. The books were level appropriate with many illustrations and short explanations, easy to understand. He told me that he was going to read one chapter of one of the books and write a summary. What a sweet surprise, I was ready for the same routine. He read the book and did the summary. I encourage him to keep on doing that and we keep on talking about his social studies homework on geography.

 This time his math exercise was about volumes and measuring perimeters, not the boring fractions. We played a game of who can solve the math problem the fastest and he win.

 Lesson Learned: Not to give up and I will keep trying to convince Matthew about the importance of reading material from different writers with different topics. He and his brother are amazing kids enjoyed working with them.
