The other night I had a parent/teacher conference with Sawyer's preschool teacher. She talked to me about how they had tested the kids on their colors, numbers, letters, etc. Sawyer had done very well in all areas except for identifying his alphabet.
He knows how to say his alphabet, but when you point to a letter, he can't tell you which one it is. He just guesses.
Anyhoo, the teacher sat across from Sawyer to test him on his letters. She would point to a letter and he would say the wrong answer. After this happened a couple of times, Sawyer paused, looked at his teacher and said, "......can we just talk?"
"Look outside....See that tree?...Trees have leaves and trees also sometimes have animals...The leaves fall off the trees....my dad cut our tree out front....."
Needless to say, I think he'll make a great politician someday.
