My Little Genius!

Keegan just maybe the next Albert..Alberta! I've scanned a few pictures of her latest at home work, this girl is non-stop drawing, writing or coloring from the time we get home until she goes to bed. I've even caught her in the morning at the kitchen table drawing at 6am..before school! Now, these drawings I wouldn't say are her best, I have notebooks, folders and shoeboxes full of 'Keegan's artwork'. What I'm totally impressed is her ability to sound words out...check out the last drawing, she did that on her own. Of course, it's easy to read I love Cassie....then the other is I love Mr. Valentine (or is suppose to she added a few too many letters) and the other is I love Mrs. Barnett!

Here's a convo I had with Keegan last night.

K- (as she comes running to me while Im cooking) Mom, the dinosaur cartoon we are watching is fiction-because it's not real.
Mom- Ya, that's right, your so smart.
K- But, Josh and Drake* are non-fiction because they are real.
Mom-Ummmmm, well, they are real people, but....
K- stomp, stomp, stomp..fall (like usual)...and is gone.


*Josh and Drake have a sitcom on Nick, ummm, that's scripted.

I didn't tell her that she wasn't all the way correct. She was so proud to know the terms, she was almost right. I think I will just turn on a documentary and tell her that 'this is non-fiction' and soon she will totally understand the difference. ;)
