Learning to Read with My Own Books

I'm learning site words in kindergarten which means I'm learning to read. Mom has made me alot of books with symbols on the pages so I can read. Each of my books has its own special page on my Dynavox so it makes reading easier.

Check Out My New Word!

I've been working really hard in Speech Therapy with Miss Valerie - who by the way is AWESOME! My new word is UP! It is a huge thing that I have learned because it marks the first time I have been able to string two sounds together to make a word! Today while playing on my swing set there were alot of times to practice my new word because I love going up and also having Bob, my dog, go up with me! So here it is...

And Site Word Bingo

I like playing best when Mom AND Dad play! I always have a symbol with my site word...that way I can find it easily on my Dynavox. Sometimes I need a little help finding it on my Dynavox. And then other times, if I get it wrong the first time...I hear my Dynavox say it and then I try again without anyone even telling me to! I think I agree with my Mom that alot of the times my "motor planning" makes me just miss what I meant to push and end up pushing the button beside it. Good thing I'm a good listener so I can redo it! Maybe someday I will write you a poem!

Bingo Queen

So I told you how much I love playing the game Zingo which then got Mom thinking! She made me Shapes Bingo, Site Word Bingo and Color Bingo! You can check out my video of me playing Shape Bingo. I've gotten really good at matching shapes so now I'm working on being able to find them without matching and also naming them with my Dynavox.

Candyland Game

I've really gotten into playing games. It all started just before Christmas time when I got the game Zingo. Then Santa brought me the Candyland Castle game which I love! I gotta teach Mom not to be so competitive that she doesn't share the shapes if she doesn't need them!
