We have been covering a letter a week for preschool (with Darsie), and she has f, b and m pretty much down. The workbook we have has her say the word and tell what the beginning sound is for several of the exercises, and she is doing great (and retaining three weeks' worth of letters so far!). She is starting to try to write them, though her motor skills are not quite up to serious writing yet (I haven't really worked on the writing with her yet). Anyway, today, she was drawing at the table and asked me how to spell "mommy". She already had the first "m" written, and as I spelled the rest, she wrote down the letters. I had not looked at her paper yet, being in the other room, and I just figured she was scribbling like she usually does when trying to "write" like Katy does. Well, when I looked at the paper, there were "momm" clear as day and in order!!! She still has to work on the "y", but I loved it and had to share!!
Maybe she thought the pretty lady with the water jug looked like her mommy :) Her writing is awesome!
