Do they not take attendance? Good Lord. She could have walked out the door and gone anywhere! Something is seriously wrong at that school if a kindergartener can decide on her own to just take a walk and the teachers don't even notice she's gone.

Jody left it in my comments on an older post about reading and I find it really useful. Or rather, I would find it really useful if M would read the books I suggest. She wants to pick her own right now, so I am letting her as long as it isn't anything horribly inappropriate.

She has also read Little House in the Big Woods, Little House on the Prairie and Despereaux with me. She reads a chapter and then that night, we reread it together. Those books are all a little stretch for her (not to mention she doesn't get some of the historical stuff)so I think the discussion helps. She also reads 1-2 science books on a topic of her choosing each trip to the library and whatever else she picks up. Now that she is almost done with the stupid fairies, I need to find her another series. She has been resistant to trying the American Girl books, but I think she would like them if she gave them a chance.
