Allie and Spelling

Not too long ago, Allie decided she wanted to spell monster. For days, she would ask me how to spell it and I would sound it out while she wrote: mmmmm....ooooo...nnnnnn...sssss....tttttt....rrrrrrr. She did well getting the letters - monstr. Today, I found her sounding out Polly Pocket and writing it down. She spelled it "pole pocet." Pretty good for a soon to be kindergartner, I think!!!
