Recent Essex County Tutoring Session Notes
Worked on finite math today. The student seems to have gotten much better at converting English into algebra terms, which is vital for this section. She originally had problems in the shading for inequality graphs, but has improved dramatically after using the trick (plug in zero, if the resulting statement is correct, then shade towards the zero and shade the other side otherwise).
Keep up the great work!

Student 1: Her 1-minute fluency was 40 words per minute, an increase from 12 words on her first trial. We then worked on reviewing the pages we read in the story Fossils Tell of Long Ago pages 14-17.
Student 2: We worked on math using the white board focusing on adding numbers that involved regrouping to the thousands place. We ended by reading a story and summarizing what was read. No 1-minute fluency was given.

We spent most of the session working on brainstorming, drafting, and editing a short essay on a book he read for extra credit in English.
