Reading

"Chickens"

Manisha was at the Parlee Farm in Tyngsboro with the kids. For Aseem
the primary attraction was the animals there. The kids spent a lot
of time looking at the animals and feeding them. Manisha gave
Supriya her allowance. Supriya said she wanted to feed the
chickens and headed straight to the feed-bin labeled "Chickens"
(the others being "Bunnies" and "Goats"). Manisha asked her how
she knew that was the right one, and Supriya replied, "That's the
only one that begins with a C."

Boston

Supriya and Manisha were playing with the globe and looking for
where we lived. Manisha pointed to Boston. Supriya located Boston,
and actually sounded out the word.

Supriya is not reading chapter books yet, but she has all the
tools she needs to read. Now we have to wait for her to get
inspired and then she will be reading at full speed before we know
it.
