[quote=Anonymous]This was my daughter, who eventually got a writing scholarship to a pretty selective private college. We read books constantly. She loved having her own box of writing things when she was a little older, with her own sticky notes and notepads and colored pens, etc. I do wish we had spent a little more time having her play with toys with spatial concepts, as she was not strong with these things, and she was not great at math. I told her recently that if I had her to raise again, I’d spend a little time playing kiddie math-type games with her, to build a little bit of a foundation. Her other parent is a math teacher, but it never “took.” She taught herself to read. We did teach her the letters and sounds, as part of playing with wooden letters. It’s fun to see this emerge. Have him dictate some of his stories, and if he can draw at all, you can put a few sentences on each page and staple and he can make a book. [/quote]
