Ivie was so excited to get her first homework assignment yesterday: Have your parents read you a book, think of 2 sentences describing your favorite part(s), watch your Mommy or Daddy write your sentences, and then draw pictures to describe them. Interested to see how long this enjoyment of homework lasts...
