So Friday Molly brought home her first homework assignment. The teacher in her email to the parents said that kids were screaming with excitement over getting to have homework.
Lessons Learned:
1. Never give your kid a pen to do the first ever homework assignment. There is no erasing pen!
2. Just spell the words she says - there is a fine line in helping with homework and doing it.
3. NEVER LAUGH - just spell exactly the words the child wants and don't let her know your true emotions over things that she answers.
4. Give her space and time - I walked away while she was coloring it and she didn't stop for 40 minutes.
5. Remember the email from the teacher - "I am sending home an All About Me poster for homework on Friday. This is something you and your child may work on together. Please let them have creative control."
| She loves coloring |
| Asked her to answer why she was a star - Seriously her answer: People love me. Well at least she doesn't have self esteem issues I guess. |
