Homework

For Bennett's homework this week he had to draw a picture of an animal that started with "s" and then write the word. He knew how to spell snake and asked me why it had an "e" at the end, but you couldn't hear it. I explained the silent "e" rule, which he seemed to understand. Look at Thursdays homework and see how he spelled sheep. He did this all by himself and then came and told me that he used the silent "e" rule to make the long "e" sound in "sheeeeeeeep". He is to smart!

On Tuesday he had to draw a picture of a food that started with the "s" sound. He immediately said salmon. I was impressed that he thought of it so quickly and also that he loves salmon so much. He was drawing his picture while I was making dinner. I was expecting to see a picture of a fish when I checked and was surprised to see a salmon fillet on a dish. I love the kids spell of "samun".

Letter A

This is Bennett first art project from kindergarten. A is for applejacks. However, Carter thought A is for Ate the Applejacks. Bennett is going to cry when he gets home. CARTER!

A Rainbow

We talking about rainbows at school. They have different colors. After the rains stops falling a rainbow comes out. A rainbow was made, we used paint. Under the rainbow I drawed a umbrella and a very fat guy. He has a raincoat on.

Leprechaun

A Leprechaun is super fast like a leopard. An it put a pot a gold at a end of a rainbow. It all green. And it has 4 fingers. Leprechauns are kind of different than us. We have 5 fingers. So we are different. They have orange beards and they have pointy ears like a elf. I tried to trap one with a laundry basket but it was to sneaky. It did silly things to our house and it turned our milk green.

Volcano

It a volcano. It explodes! Lava comes out and the lava is different colors, red, yellow and orange. A lava is super hot. It's in Pompeii. It's huge! Dinosaurs live with volcanoes.

Elasmosaurus

It swims, it eats fish. It's body is like a turtle and it's neck is like a snake and a snake tail. It lives in the ocean.

Stegosaurus

A stegosaurus has spikes on a back. And he have three spikes on his tail but you can't see it in this picture cause my moms scanner is too small. The spikes are for to poke other dinosaurs. The plates on his back back him bigger. He eats plants, that what in her mouth. Brown and green and orange are the colors I used so it can be dinosaur skin. I used coloring and sleepy crayons. A stegosaurus has a little teeny tiny head.
