Karli is starting on the writing in her book. When I do this again with her, we'll start this page earlier than we did. She's already learned things that she didn't know - so it's a little off, but she tells me what she wants to write on the board and then she copies it into her book. She's working on a papers that say:
We went to visit relatives in Yakima and they had a hot tub (cold tub in the summer) and Karli pretended she was a shark. She's also learning to swim without plugging her nose. When she looked at the picture, she was a little critical of herself. She said that sharks fins are not on their head, but on their back.
I wasn't going to have Karli work on the cover till nearer the end, but she was so curious to see how this book was going to come about, so we started on the cover. We cut out cardboard and glued construction paper to it for the front and back of the book. I made block letters (that Karli says I mess up a little because they're not perfect like stickers) - she cut them out and glued them on her book. She then drew a picture of a shark to go on the front cover. She says the shark's name is Miles and she is going to write a story about him inside the book.
