Next week we're meeting on Tuesday for Chemistry, Sunday for Spanish, and the following Thursday for Math.

Continued to work mostly on setting up integrals and using FTC to evaluate rotational surface area about an axis. She is doing really well with this!

Worked with the student through the reading section and part of the English section. She seems to have a good grasp of grammar and punctuation making the English section the place we need to concentrate the least. When going over the reading section we talked about different ways to approach the questions, different types of questions, and how to use context clues to answer questions about things that are unfamiliar. I left her a practice reading test to do using the tips in order to see where she may need to focus the most.
