Hey guys I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind helping.
Below is a list of Liam's "sight words." I wondering if you guys wouldn't mind writing letters to Liam (and Emma, so she doesn't feel left out...Fox too if you want) using mostly his sight words and simple "sound out" words. Yesterday I freaked out a little bit when he came home with a spelling test that he got 12 out of 20! What the!! (I thought he knew them all!) Needless to say today he can write every single one of them perfect (after several hours of drilling him :)). Anyways, it made me realize I needed to do more, (what!? Parents have to teach their kids too?! I thought the teachers did all of that!! ;) ) and I thought you guys maybe would want to get involved and help...:).
So if you wouldn't mind writing him letters every once in a while that he can read. (Throw in a harder word every once in a while if you want. It'll help him learn :)) You can write it to all three kids if you want, I'll just have Liam read it.

He also knows all of his family names and can sound out words. Thanks for your help guys!!

How fun! I'll get write to it :) get it? write/right? hahaha. sorry. anywho- Sierra used to have a hard time with spelling- remember when she would sit on the floor by the fridge when I would make dinner and use those magnetic alphabet letters to spell out her spelling words? As soon as we started using them, her spelling test scores went up a ton! I think she is a tactile learner more than a visual learner. It's worth a try with Liam :) You can help them study, still get dinner made and they think it's fun :) brilliant xoxoxox
Can we e-mail it to you?
Oh my gosh, that looks super creepy. I didn't realize that I was signed in as my hubby. That's me asking if we can e-mail your kids--not a total stranger! Although, I guess to them I am a total stranger.
jessica, heck yes!! kirabundy@gmail.com...and I was creeped out for just a minute ;)
