Riley Reading
Riley has been going around the house "reading" the words that he sees. He has learned to sound out words and uses this skill every chance he gets. I unfortunately only caught a snippet of him reading the title to "Grapes of Wrath". I just need to carry the camera around with me 24/7 so I can catch him reading a whole sentence. He hasn't reached the level of recognizing that the letters in the English language can make more than one sound, so it is pretty humorous to hear him sound out words. He doesn't quite get the whole "putting the sounds together to make a word" concept yet either, but we'll get there.

Oh. my. gosh. your kid is a genius.
Reading the Steinbeck too, now that's culture.
I've never read the Grapes of Wrath. It sounds like it is pretty good! Maybe I ought to try it!
Wow that's awesome! Way to go Riley!! Melinda
I am having a tough time posting a comment here, wonder why?

I LOVE the wishlist from Jenny
She will be in our prayers as she is there!!
It's just too darn bad that English isn't phonetic. We should have been Hngarians- he'd be right on! Riley is the cutest :)
