A really cool thing has started to happen over the last week or so – Max has started to try writing words himself by sounding them out in his head and spelling them as he would say them. It makes for some very interesting ways of spelling things but you can usually figure out what he’s trying to say. The really hilarious thing is he’ll sit there and argue about the spelling with you absolutely sure that he is right!
He’s also started to spell simple words that he’s never seen before by getting the phonetics right.
Amazing what a term and a bit at school can do for a kid.
