One of the assignments of his classmates was to write about a time they went somewhere fun.
I try to adapt Max's work to what his classmates are doing. Sometimes, it means he draws pictures about the story his teacher read to the class. Sometimes, we write out stories, or words they are focusing on. Max is not able to do any of this independently, so I help him by guiding his hand to draw the picture or write the words. Sometimes though, I put a velcro strap around his hand and the tool he uses to hold his crayon, and let him go at it.
The lower left part of this picture is what we get when Max goes at it by himself. These are his attempt at the letter 'a'. The right side of the picture is with minimal guidance.
One of his classmates really wanted Max to "practice on his numbers and writing his name" .
He worked really hard at this one, and it was also very little help from me.
Come on...just...what a big guy!

Yes! What a big guy!It is so good that he enjoys school so much.
I love this! And his picture! I am in love with his school too. Also, we have this Glodoodle, Max might like it - it works in the daylight as well, but you can draw with light - it looks like a magna doodle and is about the same size - ALL the kids love it here, I'm going to have to get another for Cici! http://www.glodoodle.com/
way to go Max! I really like how you were writing your name and your story about California. We have a beach here with sand, but it will not be very warm in the water. We used to live a little closer to you, but now we live way up North from you. You can find us if you move your straight up the globe, up, up to the province that looks like a rectangle! We have lots of winter snow, so it was fun seeing you play in the snow too!
Max, I love putting my feet in the sand, too! I think it's wonderful that your school friends can see how much you've been practicing your letters and numbers. Well done!
