Dustin: "Xavier, that is called an astronaut. You want to be an astronaut and fly into outer space?"
X: "Yes! I want to drive the rocket ship. As long as I get to sit in the front seat..."
I was working on some phonics and sight words with Xavier the other day. I started this particular lesson with the letter "t" and suddenly it sparked something inside Xavier. He asked if he could have the board to show me something so I gave it to him. He dre amuch bigger "t" with a circle around it and began giving me a fraction lesson about fourths and took turns drawing sections and asking me how many parts were "shaded." THIS KID!!! He is smart just like his daddy :)
Xavier's fraction lesson for mommy :) |
Lastly, I was in the kitchen cleaning while Luke was napping and X was drawing. He ran into find me to show me a present he had drawn for me. I was SO impressed with it that I had to take a picture! He wrote "mom" all by himself and the elephant is pretty spectacular for a 4 year old :)
Little genius in the making.
