The perfect Sentence

Warning: This post will have some vulgar language......

Kayden is coming right along in reading and math and other Kindergarten achievements. At parent teacher conference last month his teacher said that one area that we could work on is building a sentence. So a few times a week I'll ask him to write down a few sentences, sometimes I will tell him what to write, and sometimes he will come up with his own. He has to do proper capital letters and punctuation and spelling and spacing between words. They're pretty simple-like 4 to 5 words usually but I have seen some improvement.

So yesterday I was going through his binder and on Wednesdays they bring home all their work from the past week. I looked at his sentence worksheets and saw: I like the ass book. Yep, the perfect sentence. The capitals in the right place, good punctuation, good spacing in between words-but you see the problem. So I asked him to read me the sentence. He read it, but was pretty quiet when he said the 4th word. So I asked him what it meant, what he was trying to say and he couldn't really remember. He said 'Why can't you read it mom? I wrote it the right way.'

So how sad-don't know how or why he knows that word, or if he really even does. He still spells most things phonetically so what was he trying to spell? I'll never know but now I can't really even celebrate his first perfect sentence!!

In other news-Trace learned a new word as well-dult. That's right, grown ups are now called dults. He asked me the other day if the cookies were for the dults? What? Like you're a dult mom. So we now have a bike, a train, and a dult-hahahahahaha
