"I worked with the student on multiplication and division fact families. We spent the hour practicing fact families, and I showed him some different techniques to remember them. "

"The student and I worked on his tablet today, doing problems in preparation for his end of the year test in math. They had done little or no geometry in this class, but problems about volume will be included on the test. We did 20 problems on volume and another 10 word problems using percentages. The verbal portion of the test is challenging. He understands the mathematical part and I think he did well on understanding what was being asked. Volume was new to him, but we did so many problems in a row he seemed very comfortable by the end."

"The student began to review for the final test. We worked on stem-changing verbs on the preterite tense, 50 out of 850 vocabulary words (he scored a 100% in a multiple choice test he took). He also reviewed possessive adjectives and direct object pronoun. "

"We covered different ways of counting (skip two, three, five, and ten) with a 100s chart. Then we practiced addition and subtraction using shortcuts with the hundreds chart. She was using a longer way of adding or subtracting and we used tips to make equations quicker. We practiced multiplication and addition fluency. I gave her a bag of change to count. This was challenging for her. After grouping the quarters into dollar piles, she had difficulty putting the dimes and nickels together to make $1. She got stuck on two nickels being the same as a dime. I would suggest frequent practice of counting random change. I also showed her an online practice program."

"The student and I reviewed for her upcoming exam. We continued practicing how to perform operations on functions. We also practiced finding the domain and range of functions. In addition to those skills, we worked on graphing functions."

"We worked on writing a story. This is a typical writing assignment for the student and he's getting better and better at using vivid descriptive language every time I see him. As far as math goes, once he commits and thinks each problem through, he gets there, but he often needs a push to get there. I think with time and patience, this will become easier for him."

"We finally had a breakthrough on vertical angles! Identifying which angles have relationships to other angles has been the student's Achilles heel the last few weeks, but I think he's much clearer on it now. He did a good job with proofs and triangles as well."

"We had an overview of the course syllabus and topics. We focused on probability and normal distributions."

"Today was the last day of review before the student's test, and we covered several things in minimal details, a nice review. We did a little bit of extreme value theorem, max/min, local/global, particle movement and thinking about how to simultaneously think about the math and the situation being described by the problem."

"Today was test review day. We reviewed the material that we have seen since the beginning of the semester, went through every point on the student's review sheet, and his notes on instantaneous acceleration. We also spent a fair amount of time on unit conversions, and how to do them arbitrarily. A good session."

"Today, the student and I went over her trigonometry homework. We covered such topics as the rules for sine, cosine, and tangent and the rules for 45, 45, 90 and 30, 60, 90 triangles. She did really well with all the material, since most of it was a review from last year. We also discussed her Sociology paper."
