entirelysonjaThis afternoon during Karl's nap, Erika:
Had her first computer programming experience using Scratch -- she had a lion cub and a fox wandering around the screen making noises.
Completed lesson 95 of the Ordinary Parent's Guide to Teaching Reading.
Finished three lessons in Reading Eggs, and passed the quiz for map 8. She hadn't used Reading Eggs in a while, because the level of difficulty of the lessons had exceeded her comfort zone, but since the company sent me a code for 3 free months of service, I suggested she might give it a whirl and see if it was easier now. Not surprisingly, it was. She still doesn't like anything involving time pressure, though -- she freezes when there's a timer going.
She also watched educational videos on Brainpop Junior while I was helping Karl get to sleep.
Whew!
