"We went over factoring and simplifying exponents. I will be giving the student a practice test in preparation for his test next week."

"The student is about to take her end of course exam for algebra, so we spent this session going through the chapters that will be covered and working out classical problems that might pertain to the topics on the test. We also discussed some test taking strategies for how to approach multiple-choice problems."

"We covered basic probability, the general addition rule, independent events, the binomial random variable, the geometric random variable, sampling distribution for the mean, and proportion, as well as some combinatorics. "

"I gave the student two assessments of numerical fluency, which she passed easily. I quizzed her on both addition and multiplication facts using a deck of cards as a random number generator to make it a little bit more fun. Like usual, she and I reviewed homework in her workbook and corrected it. I found that she is much more accurate when she rewrites the problem on lined paper giving her room to work. I suggested she do this during quizzes and tests and go back and rework calculations since she said she often has time left over. When we began reviewing the next night's homework, I did a lot of instruction in number sense, explaining what the numbers and operations mean. We talked about divisibility rules, and I showed her why they work. We also explored different equivalent ways to write fractions and decimals. "

"Today the student and I met in the open anatomy lab. We went over the anatomy of the brain that he learned in his Tuesday lecture. He also brought in pictures that he took in his anatomy lab, and we labeled them to make makeshift quizzes. He says he sometimes has trouble visualizing the 3d model versus what is drawn in the book. I suggested printing out the pictures he took, and I think it really helped him connect the two together. He did an awesome job. We will pick up next week with reviewing the brain anatomy and continuing work on his study guide. "

"Student 1 and I worked on a passage about making inferences. He struggled with three of the questions, so we went over them together to understand why the answers were incorrect. We then worked on an informational text, and he did a good job of answering the questions with textual evidence. Student 2 and I started with a fictional passage that focused on evaluating evidence. He did a good job of answering the questions. We then worked on an informational text, and he did well using context clues to identify unknown words."

"During this session, the student and I covered a lot of the material that we have gone over in past weeks. We first covered the problems she had missed on her quiz from Tuesday and then started going over her review guide. I was pleased to see that she had completed most of it with little to no issues. We went over the problems she had not yet completed and then did additional problems that were similar to the ones she had questions on. These kinds of problems included finding the constant of integration through both the point plug in method and the average value method. We also went over various ways to use u-substitution to solve integration problems. "

"I covered many topics with the student this session. We went over order of operations, reinforcing the multiplication tables, simplifying fractions, adding/subtracting fractions, prime numbers, and converting fractions into decimals. She picked up the mentioned topics quickly and displayed solid understanding. In the coming sessions, I hope to incorporate these topics into word problems and have her apply her understanding to different scenarios and think more critically. I left her a little assignment to do, which was to rewrite her multiplication tables twice. "

"For this session, we continued building on concepts from our last session. The student continued to record his responses on sticky notes. He continued to have trouble with asking questions about his reading, but showed some improvement from our last session. I also noticed that he confused a lot of sight and high frequency words as he read. To help him with this, we worked on decoding skills and talked about how to pay close attention as you read to make sure what your voice is saying matches the words on the page. He still seemed to have trouble with this, so this is a skill we will continue to work on in future sessions. "

"Today, the student and I worked on review for her AP test, focusing on integration and derivatives. Once we set up the question, she's fine. She's been good with the material. She's been confident in the work. We've been doing her AP subject review a lot lately. We've gone over every strategy over the past few sessions. Now it's just repetition. We went over everything in the review, but she had more work to do in her study packet. I was made aware of her last quiz and test in which she had gotten an A and B. She's been doing well and studying hard. "

"Today, we covered the relationship of voltage, current, and resistance. The student was fairly familiar with how to calculate one given the others, but wanted to know how they pertained to emf, electric potential energy and charge. I took time to show her the units of each, as well as how the units break down and fit into one another. This helped her realize which values could be multiplied or divided to find others. She then worked through a circuitry assignment that she had little trouble with. "
