Portfolio and planning

I have been reading a book called " Learning to read and write in the multicultural Family" by Xiao-Lei Wang and I am consideri g some of the ideas explained on the book
Creating a Portfolio of Clara's language evolution looks like an interesting idea. I could keep her first drawing and sketches of first writings.So she could see how she is actually progressing. she could also as the author of the books suggests , choose which items should be included in her portfolio. Recordings of her oral and reading skills could also be a good idea for her to be involved in her learning process.
The second idea suggested in the book is to design a clear and revisable planning of what we want our kids to learn.It should include aim, activities, and assessment.I have to say that I haven't before thought about assessment(obviously not grading in a formal way, but checking in everyday life situations if she has in fact learnt what we had planned to)...so this is something I will consider

Half year,...where is Bubu?

Half Year ...Where is Bubu ?
So far I keep on reading to Clara some of her books each morning(it is the first thing we do after having breakfast) and I read loud some of my books(now I am reading to hear short bits of  The book Scottish Fairy Tales)...I have started reading poetry so from the book Read Aloud Rhymes for the very Young by Jack Prelutsky I have grouped some poems in categories(good morning/good night/funny stories/ bath time/ weather) and Ihave created more posters which I have hung around.We read the good morning poems  in the morning and the good night ones Before going to bed.
Clara turns her head when we call her name,she is happy when she seesher wodden yellow car and sometimes turns her head looking for our dog when we ask her "Where is Bubú?"
