M100W

I mentioned the "The Magic 100 Words" in an earlier post.  Makena has to learn to read and write the 100 most common words.  We practice nearly everyday and she's doing extremely well.  One day when we were reviewing the words, Kessler came up to me and said, "I want to do it!!"  "You do?  Which color?"  He picked a color.  So, I read each of the words as he repeated after me.  It's not quite the same exercise we do with Makena.  He confidently repeated every word, very focused, very determined.  When he was done he proudly received a high 5.  Now he has to practice every time Makena does and he also earns the same treat she does for working so hard.
