Today on the way to school, Lillie and I were reviewing her spelling words. The only one she was still having a little trouble with was information. She asked me to make up a phrase that would help her remember it. We'd done that once before with a shorter word and it had helped. But, information? A little tougher.
This is what we came up with:
I Need Food On Rabbits Made At The Icey Orange Needle.
Then, we decided that the "tion" was the only part she was having a hard time with so we just focused on that:
The Icey Orange Needle
Tuna In Orange Napkins
Tea In Orange Nests
Ahh, good times.
Wow. I think tion will be the icey orange needle from now on.
ReplyDeletequeso,
ReplyDeleteShe got 100% on the test, so I'm just thankful I didn't totally mess with her mind. I can just picture her saying to herself "the orange icey needle?" "orange tuna in napkins?"
The Icky Old Noodle? Yeah, that's not much better.
ReplyDeleteYay, you're back! Thanks for stopping by, I'm glad to see you :-)
