100%

That's right....Gabby came home today with her 1st spelling pre-test and had 100% on the top of her paper with a sticker. I think the list was very easy for her (wasn't sure about the word "the" since she was having a little trouble with it) but she definitely knows the -at word family (bat, hat, cat, rat etc). And her reward, she doesn't have to take the actual spelling test on Friday. Woohoo Girlie!!!

I just purchased a turbo twist spelling by leap frog on ebay along with the mind station & cartridge that you can actually hook up to a computer & type the child's actual spelling list for her to practice. It's on its way & I'm hoping to have it before I leave for CA on Tuesday.

On a side note, Gabby will be getting her tonsils & adenoids removed on Sept 29th. She'll miss 1 week of school & then return the following week with activity restrictions. Her surgery will be outpatient as long as everything goes well & we'll be back home about 7 hours after we check in the waiting room. Pray for us all. Gabs is very nervous & I must say I am a little too. But I've got a list of foods & beverages to shop for so we'll try to make the best of it. Pray this takes care of her sleep problem so she feels rested after her 11-12 hours of sleep each night & then maybe if she's rested she'll get on the bus nicer at least a little more than she does now. Just be strong Jet, just be strong.

Oh my! Time warp here...I just lost an hour to blog reading & internet surfing. Gotta get to bed. Night all!
