Spelling and Ting Xie

School starts! And Lil Shauna came home with her very 1st list of spelling and ting xie. I was worried. These will be additional weekly words that she has to learn on top of her phonics spelling.

However, I burst out laughing when I saw the 1st list of 4 words for next week - "can, man, van, pan". Words that she can easily spell using phonics. No sweat at all. She didnt even need to learn them. She is learning much more difficult words such as "without, couldn't, between, through, though, thought" in her phonics class now. Ting xie is something new though and we probably has to spend some effort on that. 

I am proud of my big girl. Soon, it will be didi's turn. We are going to sign him up for phonics when he turns 3 year old this October. Poor teacher will probably pull hair like what we did. Lol.
