So I was reading a....Hey look, a squirrel!

That is what it is like doing homework with Sam at times. Tonight she was to read a very short, simple story then write what it was about.

This is how one page went....
Sam: "This is a picture of Earth from space." I want to be an astronaut when I grow up.
me: OK
Sam: Did you know that in the musical I get to dress up as whatever I want to be when I grow up.
(the school musical for 2nd grade is in February. It is "When I grow up.")
me: OK
Sam: So I want to dress up as...... oooooohhh, I see Trix! You bought Trix cereal?

Focus!! She went from reading about a space picture to Trix.

I am all the time saying, "focus!" Her attention is all over the place.
