Isaac writing this answer while playing the Nintendo DS
Isaac, you have a very impressive vocabulary! Do you read a lot of books? What is your favorite book or favorite type of book? When I was your age, I really enjoyed mystery novels and the Babysitter's Club series.

Isaac, I am curious, are you good at word games? My hunch is that you would be very quick at learning the twists to how a crossword puzzle really works. I didn't figure it out until I was in my 30's. The puzzles usually have a theme and sometimes the clues fool you at first glance and the answers are sometimes one or two words or even a phrase! There is also a game called "7 litte words" online. Ask your mom or dad to help you find it, there is a kids version. You get sections of letters to help build the words to fit the clues. I thought this would be super easy, some of the adult words I have never heard of but I LOVE to learn new words so it is great. Let me know what you think of a newspaper crossword puzzle.

Hi Isaac,
ReplyDeleteI love reading too. I am just re-reading the Anne of Green Gables series. Have you read it? Anne has an extensive vocabulary and a love or words, just like you!
Have you met George MacDonald, C.S. Lewis, and (especially) J.R.R.. Tolkien yet? Oddly, John Muir might be someone you would find engaging (he was a true original). Ray Bradbury was also a favorite.
