Great Homework Night

Tonight was a great homework night. The boys each read three books each along with other assignments (math, sentence structure, comprehension, etc.) and didn't complain too much about it. I am really amazed at how well they are both doing, even though Austin is reading at level and Danny is reading below level. It's funny how Austin wants to help Danny on certain words when Danny is reading and it makes Danny SO mad. He has more of a desire to read than Danny but with time, I think Danny will continue to improve and will start to enjoy it as well. Right now, Danny's interests lie in drawing and making picture books. I explained to him that if he could incorporate words in his books, it might help him to read but he only puts in words like Mario, Luigi and Koopa. He did make Austin a homework book that was so cute. I look forward to seeing where they are at the end of the year.
