Mrs. Cox is encouraging all the kids to try to spell words themselves by sounding them out. Talan loves to do this more at school then he does at home, but I figured he wouldn't complain if he was having to sound out words for his Christmas list. I was wrong. He complained, took several days, and even more breaks, and might have added more to his list if he didn't have to write it.
In the end, I think he pretty much did a great job.
Talans Christmas List
remote control car
hex bug
remote control helicopter
poke-bol and guy
toy story claw
vet medicine bag
stuffed spiderman
After writing 'hex bug' Talan stared at his paper for a bit and got a discouraged look on his face and said,
"Santa is just not even going to read this because my letters are so good he will think it is from an adult."
I assured him this was not the case and I would even send Santa an email to let him know that the author of this Christmas list is 5, not 25.
