Philip and the U.P.S. truck

Last week, Philip wrote the following: "I hear honk. I see CVS." I was trying to figure out what he meant. Then he wrote all these different places around the house including mailbox and driveway...I couldn't figure out how he could hear the honk at CVS and then be at home. And then he said mailtruck. I finally figured out that instead of CVS, he meant UPS- and was talking about the UPS truck...but he didn't have anything on his vehicles page for U.P.S. truck. So I added it. Here is the final product of what he wrote:

"I hear Honk. I think U. P. S. Truck

Outside. I think I think I see U. P. S. Truck."

I was so excited and impressed with his creative problem solving in telling me that he wanted to add a new word to his vehicles page.

Philip I am so impressed with the way you put your existing words in order that gave enough clues for Claire to understand exactly what you were talking about.

You Rock!!!
Love, Mom

P.S. When can you pick up the drycleaning? And don't forget to bring the garbage cans back up to the house.
