The student and I covered material that she had for her final this week. It covered the entire breadth of statistics, from population parameters, to hypothesis testing, to regression analysis. We were able to compare the different test statistics with each other, when each one should be used, or what information needs to be given to perform a specific test.

The student and I read a non-fiction piece that was about his grade level. He did pretty well with the words when I reminded him to sound them out. The purpose was to see if he was comprehending what he was reading. We had to discuss some of the vocab. We will work on fluency next time. We also worked on sections of a hundreds chart. He did fine with the patterns and addition work, and his number sense will increase once he is able to finish these assignments quickly.

We went over topics for the quiz later this week. She knew most of the material. Usually she misses only a step or some small detail. I think she understands a few of the problems better.

I met the student to go over her test and to help her prepare for her next text. We went over the problems on the test and found that to the most part, she actually understood the concept but under time pressure of the test, she misapplied the concepts and/or made calculation errors. Once concept that was missed more than others was the chain rule. We did a number of problems that emphasized the chain rule and I was careful to let the student make and correct her own mistakes. The new test will be on the product rule and the quotient rule. We first went over the basic concepts and then did a variety of problems that utilized chain rule, product rule and quotient rule together. I left the student a worksheet with about 25 problems to do for homework.
