We learn about spelling and grammar by using mentor sentences. We learn how, as an author, you can make authorly decisions. You can purposefully break a rule to get a point across or to play with language. I would like to believe that my son was making a purposeful decision with the store list.
Does he mean Colby cheese? Or does he mean Kobe cheese as in KKKKKOOOOOOOOBBBEEEEE!?
He is a sports fanatic, and by the way he wrote his special cheese on the store list, it wouldn’t take long for most to figure that out. He is a young author with the purpose of spreading Kobe cheer for all to see and hear.
Now about the speggiti and mb…..
Those sound like great additions to a grocery list. At least it wasn’t CAAAANDEEE!

I have saved so much of my kids’ early writings as they have those unintended double meanings hidden in the spelling. Hang on to that list!
