spell check

I was checking my student's journals today. One of my little boy's journal said....

"I wit to the dnist and I got a crayola."

Since I can read "Kindergarten", I knew that it said, "I went to the dentist and got a crayola."

I told the little boy that I used to love getting going to the dentist and getting a sticker or digging out of their bucket of goodies.

He looked at like I was crazy. He said, "No, Mrs. Link. It says, I went to the dentist and I got a crown."

Too cute!!! He looked at his crayons (pronounced as crowns, to him) and just copied it!!
