The Letter F

When your Kindergartner comes home and says he is working on F words this week your mind goes there. Okay, maybe just mine.

Anyway, Jakob brought home a painting he did of the letter F and it was awesome. It had a blue capital F and a lowercase f surrounded by a sea of red and brown. He also brought home a page of words he had copied while he was at the writing station. He was not the least bit proud of these and didn't think I would want to keep them. I told him how wonderful they were and how proud I was he wrote these words.

"But mommy," he said, "I just copied them. Is it okay to copy words and not just think of them myself?"

My overachiever. He thought I would only want words he thought of and then wrote down. I explained how important it was for him to copy all his words at the writing center and how proud I was he took the time to make each letter.

Can you tell what the words are? I know the first four and I'm still guessing on the last one.




friend, Friday (he even capitalized the F), fairy, fall and ?
Send me your thoughts.
