Christian has become quite the reader. At least his ability to read is quite prolific for a first grader. He is already in the Advanced Reading group in school. He gets extra books from the library to read at home, but he doesn't seem too interested in reading books as a whole. Once he gets better he might be more interested in books like his Mama was growing up. He does well on his spelling tests and generally gets 100 or more including his two bonus words. He still gets some of his letters and numbers backwards on occasion, but that seems to be improving. He has quite a lot of homework for 1st grade. He usually has 1 homework page, spelling homework and reading decodable books. Depending on his mood he gets most of it done in an hour while we are making dinner. Hopefully this habit sticks with him and he doesn't procrastinate like his father did growing up.
