t-i-o-n, shun shun shun shun!

We’ve been spending a lot of time on spelling lately. Sophie’s only assigned the first seven or so words from the weekly list, but it’s still quite a challenge — for the entire family, as well as our cadre of sitters/habilitation workers. This week’s words are particularly tough: action, vision, motion, nation, section, tension and vacation. (The irony of the combo of the last two is not lost on me.)

All week, I’ve gone around with that old Electric Company bit about -tion in my head, so we looked it up on YouTube. I’m not sure that will help Sophie on her test today, but we had a lot of fun watching it.
