We have some booklet type books at our house. I believe I saved them from when Austin was is first grade, and now Adam is working through them. Mike was having Adam read some of them to him last night. He wanted to make sure that Adam was reading the words and not the pictures, so on one particular page he cover the picture with another one of these booklets. The main word was "goat." I felt very confident that he knew this word. However, he was seeming to struggle. So we encouraged him to sound it out. He got a really confused look on his face. Finally, we asked him what are you reading. He very innocently pointed to the UPC mark on the back of the booklet that covered the picture!
Leave it to Adam to try to find a way to read that! However, I don't think that will be such a great story!
ha ha ha ha!
