Me: So Ruthie, your homework tonight is to write three words in the “air” family.
Ruthie: CHAIR!
Me: Awesome. What’s another one?
Ruthie: STAIR!
Me: Yup. One more!
Ruthie: PAIR!
Me: Close! I know it sounds the same, but that’s actually spelled P-E-A-R.
Ruthie: [blank stair stare]
Me: Um, yeah. Actually, PAIR is right. Good job.
