In progress
I am not sure what to do! N is still able to memorize increasingly difficult words (this week's list included the days of the week), but not able to remember to incorporate them into his regular writing. I keep hoping an answer will appear out of the sky!
With the holidays approaching and my focus turning to my incoming guests (arriving Tuesday and staying til 12/31/08), I am hoping that N's school issues don't get forgotten. Last week I forgot to write in his reading log every single day! (He did read, but God Knows what/how many pages!) Now I am not sure even where his reading log is!!! Hopefully/probably in his desk. Miss Teacher has called me in for a meeting on Monday morning at 8:15. That cannot be good, otherwise it would have been over the phone or e-mail!
I've been in such a bad mental state the past few weeks that I am making a concerted effort not to think about it.
So for now, I will put on music while I wash windows, do laundry, decorate (we have even MORE Christmas elves to put out) and clean. If I can sing to the music, my mind won't wander into enemy territory. This worked well yesterday.
Then later tonight N will write a few sentences for me. Probably kicking and screaming, but I can't ignore it forever! Works in progress require work.
