I had a moment this week where a student sounded out his words to write for the first time by himself. When he brought his paper up to me and showed me I said "you sounded out your words, wonderful job!"-he was walking around the room for about 10 minutes going up to his friends saying "I sounded out my words"-he was so proud of himself. Just a few words of encouragement and now he considers himself an actual writer! :)<br /><br /><a href="http://notjustchildsplay.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Not Just Child's Play</a> Miss Trayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994698870486768685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605926763598675958.post-44253598670786104832015-10-03T13:34:14.606-07:002015-10-03T13:34:14.606-07:00Yay for the triumphs!
