As you all know, Lex is an
awesome speller! Right? :) Sometimes he surprises me with his
spelling abilities, like knowing which words need a “silent e”
at the end, and other times he surprises me with his creatively
misspelled words. He built a train station with blocks the
other day and asked me to write a sign for it. I grabbed the
DoodlePro and asked him how to spell “Train Station?” He got
“train” right and confidently spelled “station” as “Stashne”
Sta-sh-ne. I can see where he coming from with that spelling.
Yesterday I made stencils for him and using the circle stencil
he drew a pizza. The top word in the picture is his spelling of
“pizza.” Pete-sae. I showed him the proper spelling and tried
to explain how words aren’t always prounced as they are
spelled. The learning process is amazing.
