And I see site words as words that are memorized like CAT which was her first word. I had been reading MousePaint to her and the cat bowl has C A T on it. So she was driving me crazy while I was visiting with my friend so I grabbed her doodlepad and was writing letters on it and wrote CAT which she informed me "that spells CAT" She didn't sound it out just recognized it so it was a site word in my opinion.
But maybe reversing the game might help. I will try it. Thanks Cathy.
I also let her type in MSWord sometimes she types words for me but here lately it has been about exploring the keyboard and watching the menu keys come up. The game was she would ask to push a specific key but she had to tell me what sound it made before pushing the key. But now the rules have diminished and she takes advantage of typing all over the place. And if I try to type and have her tell me well she doesn't want anything to do with it. (Deep sighs)
