Two weeks ago, Miranda and Eleanor did a couple of drawings that I liked. The first one is from Miranda. She drew this picture of a person. When Agnes asked where the arms were, she added the two lines above the head. The funny thing is that Miranda often has an expression on her face that looks just like this picture.
Eleanor has been obsessed with clocks and circles. She’ll draw the circle, a dial in the middle, and the 1 in approximately the right position. Then she asks for my help in writing in the rest of the numbers, but I make her call out the next number around the clock before I write it in. Then, she wanted to write her name. I wrote it for her above the clock, and then she tried writing it at the top of the page. She’s come up with some clever alternate ways of writing letters. For instance, her lowercase N is two vertical lines that are then connected at the top.
