Silly mood...

...we wanted to try some new apps but the internet was out.  Got it fixed so we should be good for tomorrow...

Need to find new sentence builder...

Easing back into it...

Sick this week...

So, Joshua was sick at the beginning of the week and now Mark was sick on Wednesday evening. He seemed better on Thursday morning and we did a little work.  Then, Grandma Wetzel called and we got distracted and our video turned off.  I think I have to delete some things on the iPod so there is room for recording.  So, I did that.  Mark was pretty crabby on Friday morning so we are not going to work.  I will be lucky to get him in the tub and to school!  I hope things improve for next week.  There is no school all week!

Starting 2nd grade words...

Mark was pretty distracted this morning but we did get some spelling in.  Started some 2nd grade words!

Distracted...

Mark was a little hyper and distracted so we tried our best...

More spatial work...

Mark had quite a bit of energy today.  We worked on some spatial items.  I had to really restrain him from just choosing randomly but I think he was starting to slow down and listen toward the end.  We also tried a new Spelling Bee app and he really started to engage with that (after the video was over...)

Lots of energy!

Trying some spatial work...

...trying a new app with some spatial work.  This is one area that I really want Mark to improve on.  It will be needed on the farm when I tell him to put something in/on another thing...i.e. put the scoop in the bucket (not beside it).

The problem is that he just guesses so I kind of have to hold his hand down and make him listen to the instructions and he doesn't care too much for this.  Also, the app we are using doesn't really keep track of his guesses so I may look for another one that is better suited to testing and keeping track of how well he is doing.  I don't expect Mark to learn left and right but we can at least start working on it...

Today is his IEP meeting with the school...prayers appreciated!

Good work

Lots of sentences
