Cooper has been in speech since last fall, and needless to say it's going alot slower than we had thought/hoped for.... I guess that's just what happens when a kid can't hear for the first two years of life. So after trying all sorts of ways to get him to practice his words it would always end in tears. We were both so frustrated. So I came up with the idea of a prize box, one trip to Partyland and we were ready to roll. It was magic, he loves to practice because he gets a sticker and everytime he gets 5 stickers he gets a prize! It's going so much better now, he actually passed of the letter T at the end of the word, first one - yeah!
Then Noah wanted to join in the fun, so he has to practice spelling 5 times a week and if he gets a 9/10 or 10/10 he gets a prize. The next spelling test he got 10/10 plus 2 bonus words! Yes bribery does work!!
