Jacob and Phonics

Jacob has been recognizing letters and learning phonics with daddy since he was 3. Daddy came out with a lot of fun phonics games and projects. That helps a lot when Jacob goes to JK and start to learn popcorn words from his teachers. Jacob is learning his popcorn words by sounding them out in phonics terms, blending the sound-spelling patterns.

As of today, we spend 1 hour in reading bible almost every night before bed time. (No forcing at all. He begs daddy to tell him bible story every night. I guess daddy is a good story teller.... LOL.) We will read the bible together. Jacob will read the words he recognizes, and daddy will read the words he doesn't know. In many times, daddy came out with a very simple analogy to match his level to help him understand the story. Sometimes daddy came out with some projects. (ie: learning God's people's "special tent" with a Tabernacle model). Fun and creativity never end at our home. They always inspire us to laugh, learn and to grow.

For the bible reading part, this is the biggest opportunity daddy have: Daddy would blend in our moral views, our family values and our Christian faith.  Daddy sow the seed, and water it every night. Jacob accepted Jesus at 4 years old.
