"It's fine," he says in a kind voice, "just try to sound it out by how you think the letter will sound like." He wanted Elli to be independent in her learning and try and learn stuff on her own so that if he got busy she could teach herself.

|
|
"ok" she said, she looked down at the book this time more determined, she saw a letter and ran it through her head, "Ch..A..ll..an..he" Ellimere sat up with an excited look
|

|
|
|
He nodded with a smile, "Good. Keep going. If you need any help just tell me." Trevor was happy on how much Elli was progressing in learning how to read.

|
|
Ellimere looked at him with a kind smile, "thank you" she looked back down at the book
|
| |
|
|
|
He nodded in response and watches as she started to try and read the book again.

|
|
Ellimere studied the book, "T..I .me" she sounded out, she smiled up again at Trevor, "thank you, truely for teaching me" she said
|
| |
|
|
|
He nodded hearing her sound out the word, a small smile on his face. "Of course," he says, "besides it is important for someone to be able to read."
|
|
|
|
|
Ellimere nodded, and sounded out more words, Ellimere started to rub her eyes, "I am a bit tired now, sorry I can't continue"
|
| |
|
|
|
He nodded, "That's ok. I can leave now so you can rest." As he is saying this he stands and moves the chair back to its original spot in the room.

Ellimere smiled softly, "thank you" she whispered, Ellimere took the book and placed it in her draw
