Recent Wrigleyville Tutoring Session Notes
Today, the student and I focused on taking a more active approach to reading so that her comprehension of main ideas and supporting details will increase. I also recommended test-taking tips, such as ignoring the last passage on the test to optimize her time with other passages, and rephrasing possible answers as questions to eliminate wrong answers.

We looked at the rules for adding and subtracting logs, as well as what it means when there is a constant multiplied by a log. We also went over common logs and how to put them in the calculator.

The student was prepared with questions from various sections she needed clarification on. We went over graphing inequalities and piecewise functions, operations with matrices, word problems dealing with modeling data, and using a graphing calculator to graph multiple functions. She had a good understanding of the concepts and only needed clarification on small details in order to fully understand. She was able to apply the knowledge I gave her to answer questions and was able to recall the information.

That way, she will have a much better understanding of multiplication knowing that a multiple of 8 could never be an odd number. She has a very good attitude. I included many strategies and suggestions that may help her as always. I will see her today as we near the end of our multiplication journey.
