A few weeks ago, Jr. Princess was upset that we wanted her to work on her reading instead of watch tv. So, she did the worst job of faking that she didn't know how to read to try and get out of it. Well, that doesn't fly at our house, so we made a new rule that there is no tv unless you do 1 page of positive-attitude (this part was key) reading homework that day. Well, she lasted about 1 1/2-days before she got with the program.
And we knew she could do it! It was only about a week before she finished her whole first phonics kit, and she was actually choosing to do more each night as she became super proud of herself. She finished the last book last week, and got to pick where we went out to dinner to celebrate. Snuffy's! She selected chicken fingers, about 1/2 of my hamburger, and a delicious brownie malt.
Welcome to the reading club, Jr. Princess!
