Justin v Compound Words


Had a good laugh today...Justin and I began working on syllables and compound words today. I began reading him a sentence that he was then supposed to pull out the two words that would become the compound word, the sentence went a little sumpin like this,
"A cloth for a table."

Justin's reply:
"A really big napkin that you can spread out."

Huh, maybe I should re-evaluate my skills and/or aspirations at teaching my son first grade. Perhaps my knowledge ended somewhere around this age:

Justin is demonstrating critical thinking, "out of the box" thinking!!! Good stuff! I know you are doing a great job.
