"We continued to focus on verbal and writing. The student has really embraced the strategies and we are ready to really focus on the test-taking, in general. We are going to focus on the time element in the next coming sessions."

"We focused on the math, and the student does well when he chunks the section into 10-minute stretches and uses that as a pacing strategy; for 60 problems in 60 minutes, he should be completing more than 1 problem per minute in order to have time for the more complicated problems later in the section. He did really well demonstrating general mastery of the content. When he focuses, he can do really well. We also completed one of his math packets, which has problems very similar to some of the more difficult assessment test problems. "

"I gave the student the reading and English portions of an assessment practice test. We had a few minutes left over, so we started going over her answers for the reading section. I also assigned her a test taking strategies reading to complete before our next session."

"We went over basic graph and chart trends: direct, inverse, exponential, flat, etc. We then started basic science sections in which she was showed the graphs before the questions. She had to explain to me any patterns and trends she noted in the graphs and tables. She then proceeded to answer the questions. She showed some success at this."

"The student moved up 4 points in Science and 10 in Reading, so I'm so excited for her. We went over the questions she missed and pinpointed finding the answers in the passage before answering as her key strategy. The remainder of the time we spent making science easy. After we sorted through some of the questions, she was able to go back to a test she took a few months ago, and suddenly the answers to the ones she missed seemed obvious."

"The student focused on reading and writing sections today. We talked about trying to read out loud in order to identify where sentences sounded strange, because this is often where errors occur. "

"The student and I worked on reading and math sections today. As the assessment test is about consistency, we practiced revising some of his answers by going through the questions more thoroughly. This has yielded promising results, as I have emphasized that test-taking strategy is just as important as knowing all the material on the exam. I also assigned him a writing prompt and science section to test the waters and find how good he is at these."

"Tonight I focused on reading comprehension strategies and test taking skills. We worked on reading the questions and underlining important information in the passage. The girls did well and we are working on vocabulary to bolster their skills."
