Intellectual Development
Why have a blog if you can't brag now and then? Max has made some real progress since school started, though it doesn't have much to do with school (though he's been a very good student lately, they tell us).

 | The biggest excitement is still the reading. Max has worked through the first phonics books, and read an awful lot of the Dick and Jane you see here. He's been enjoying the old Tom Lehrer reading songs (Silent E, L-Y, etc.) and we just got the second phonics set in the mail today. |
 | If you'd asked me, I'd have said that he wasn't ready for Rush Hour yet, and the beginner game is labelled "Six and Up." But Max can do most of the Beginner level puzzles with minimal coaching, and he and Woody have been working through the second stage ones. He can't get them on his own, but he can help. |
