Sound checker

Gillian has a new classroom job this week. She told me yesterday “I never had this job before. I read the sight words!” Tonight she told me “I’m the sound checker at school. I use the eye stick to point at the words. The words are on a pocket chart.” I was confused. “What’s an eye stick?” She said “It’s a stick with an eye on it.” And I said “What’s a pocket chart?” She said “It’s a chart with pockets.” Oh, that makes sense. 

I had Daddy ask Gillian about her job. She said “I’m a sound checker!” And she proceeded to tell him about how she reads the sight words to her class using the eye stick. I’m still not sure I understand, but she is very excited about this job.
