Our House Rules

<2 months since my last post. sniff.:'( And no, I haven't been busy. I've just been lazy. >

In reference to a previous post on Dolche Sight Words, I decided that since the little boy is getting better by the day at reading and understanding what he reads -- why not integrate a little something to target discipline?

And so, after about an hour or so of prioritizing what messages we wanted to send across, we came up with this shortlist:

Read before you enter!
It has worked pretty well for us in all sorts of situations. We just remind by saying, " what did we say in the house rules?" and he soon after tries to do what we have laid out as the rules.

It actually also serves as a good reminder to everyone else in the house -- not just the toddler -- on the way we should treat one another. :)
