My kindergartner, Sleepy, gets the case of the itchies whenever we have school together. We will be learning subtraction and all of a sudden he starts scratching every part of his body.
The kid can't sit still to save his life.
Despite this, he is learning and even though I hear, "I hate phonics," or "I hate..." whatever, he does manage to cram some things into his brain.
Yesterday, we were doing phonics in the living room. We were playing "I Spy". I said, "I spy something that starts with the /b/ sound." Now, the room has about four bookshelves crammed with Doc's books. So, the obvious answer was book.....to me...but not to my little stinker.
He looks around for a couple seconds and then turns around, sticks out his behind, pats it and says, "Butt starts with the /b/ sound!" and he was very proud of himself.
He's a cheeky fellow, that one. Pun intended, of course.
