Rainbow Hair

Well, Terra definitely grasps concepts quickly, and has a great memory, which I knew on a certain level... but it's been reinforced in my mind. The Rainbow Hair poem is committed to her memory, as are the Dolche Words for this week. She's totally able to be told "long line, short curve" etc and make most all of the alphabet correctly now. She already knew and wrote her letters, but typically started at the bottom, or made some backwards (d/b) or upside down (M/W) - but since she took a peek at Handwriting Without Tears, she's suddenly much more likely to make the letters correctly.

She's also learning months of the year and days of the week between home and school, as well as getting a real handle on the basics of time within 5 minutes of us playing with the clock I bought for her Learning Wall.

She's learning so much, so fast, and so dang effortlessly, I'm just so proud!
