good times!!

i admit that i'm a little obsessive about this dale-chall list. it's a list of 3000 words that a child should know when they get to kindergarten, assuming their parents talk to them. so i wanted to see how well the presidents knew these words.

The GAME - Use this Word (aka-moms a freak)

The Rules- use the word that you are given in a sentence, each word used correctly gets a point, the person with the most points at the end of the game is the winner!

we only got through the "a" words (126 words) towards the end we went really fast and skipped a few words that i knew they would know for sure.

a few of the funny sentences i got,

"I auto go to the store"
"I was army-ed by a real vampire"
"I was aged by four"
"An apron is something that comes out of the printer"
"I have a head ache, I really have one from all of these sentences"
