Hooked On Phonics


My five-year old students are learning to read. Friday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said, "Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"

I took a deep breath, then asked..."What did you call it?"

"It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!"

And so it does... " A f r i c a n Elephant "

Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful?
