Due to some casual experimenting yesterday, we found out that D's reading comprehension increases greatly when he stands to read. Reading out loud made a difference too. Reminds me of old fashioned one room schoolhouses, isn't that how they did it?
That reading out loud helped surprises me; he always complained that he couldn't follow anything if he read out loud. I think it's really the standing that did it.
He doesn't want me to put the computer back up high like I did for my work at home job. He has asked to not have schoolwork on the computer, he dislikes it a lot. I'm concluding that he's grown much taller and it's now too low for him; I can't help but insist he needs to be standing just like I do!
He does still enjoy sitting close to me on the sofa when I read aloud to him and I love that!
