Mr. A had a great year in Kindergarten. He flourished in reading, excelled in Math, and rocked it out at writing. All of the words he learned to write were done the "non-dictionary" way. Since school ended, though, he has become so concerned with the "dictionary spelling" of every word.
In addition, he has started spelling out everything he says. I'll give a few examples:
- To end his prayers, "In the name of Jesus Christ, A-M-E-N"
- "Hey, M-O-M, can I have..."
- "D-A-D, I'm trying to talk to you"
- In reply to my question of did he brush his teeth, "Y-E-S"
- "Are we going to C-O-S-T-C-O?"
- "Do I need to wear my C-L-O-T-H-E-S?"
It cracks us up. I admit to being a pretty particular speller in my own right, so maybe I'm wearing off on him at an early age? Poor guy!
