Max's Grocery List

For the past week, Max has been working on his letters and his words by writing his own grocery list, usually working on it in the car. He would think of something that he would want on his list, we would then sound the word out for him, and he had to guess what letters went with the sounds we were making. For the most part, he does very well, mapping the sounds into letters. He has the most difficulty identifying the short vowel sounds, but then so does everyone!

Anyway, he is very proud of his list (we are too).

How many words can you identify? Hint: some words are split across mutliple lines and some of the words start and then don't finish, such as "Broccoli" which appears as "Broc" on the list. Max loves broccoli. (!!) My favorites are "Bacons" and "Butters". (We've taught Max the rule about adding "s" to make words plural and he's been applying it everywhere!)



Be sure to click on the preview above to see the list in detail. We have an even higher resolution scan of this list that I can send to interested grandparents. Just send me e-mail! :-)
