[quote=Anonymous]I guess the question to me is, are the questions illegible because these are hard concepts to draw legibly, or because the kid is rushing through the work. If it's the former, I'd let it go, or maybe have the child add a few words to explain what they were trying to draw. (e.g. add captions "two cousins", "going to Grandma's", "too happy" to help someone understand why these 3 pictures, each showing 2 smiling people, actually represent 3 different words). After all, the point of the activity is to develop understanding, not to develop the ability to draw legible pictures of their vs they're. On the other hand, if my kid was rushing through an assignment, and not doing something they were clearly capable of doing, then I'd reinforce the idea that in our family we work carefully and do our best, and I'd ask for the assignment to be re-done.
