"The student was having trouble understanding his book for school and getting through the reading. He was open to suggestion and took notes. We made a plan for him to finish his book by Saturday, so he could use Sunday to go back and review the chapters that he had skimmed. My hope is that he finishes the book on time and stays on top of the following assignments."

"We went over "Like Water for Chocolate" and covered the general plot of the book. We then discussed themes, especially of magical realism, food, and family tradition. One major theme we examined was the role that emotions play in the creation of food, and its reception. Different people react differently to the food, based on the person and situation that created it. She then wrote a practice question on this topic. The main thing the student has to work on for her exam is being confident and putting down ideas! Also, a specific knowledge of a few examples will be very beneficial. We also went over how to prepare to get the most out of her one-on-one session with her teacher tomorrow."

"Finding a set of early readers booklets over the weekend, I was excited about the student starting w/this 1st grade early reader series, especially as he's ONLY in Kindergarten. We started off w/ the story of the monkey Hip and focused on the short "i" and "a" sounds. We reviewed w/ some flash cards for site words he'd been given. He was rewarded by getting to use the Big Pink Highlighter to write a :-). We then went on to read another early reader booklet, practice w/ another set of flash cards, write 3 words, and read the last early reader booklet about Ned and a Cab. His reward was to get to color a favorite page of the black & white booklet w/ three crayons. He wanted to use more, but I said he'd have to spell the names of the colors. He chose to spell yellow, blue and red. After some practice, he spelled them and got to use two more colors.:-) That was a fun culminating activity. After the lesson was over, the student's mother gave me a list of frequency word's he is responsible for learning and some additional ones given more recently that she wrote on the list. I look forward to working with the student on these and mastering them. "
