"Today the student and I reviewed all the material relevant to his upcoming test. We covered how to do percents/unit conversions/triangles. I explained a few test-taking tips that could help him manage his time better and we worked on organizing his work in a manner that could help him check his work quicker. "

"Today we reviewed the student's homework for the week. It mostly covered area and perimeter, decimals, and a few word problems. We made it through tonight's homework as well as tomorrow's. Then we worked on correcting his last math test. We went through and corrected all of the questions he had missed, and I made sure he understood the concepts. He only has two other math problems to finish for Friday's homework. For our session on Friday, I plan to bring some worksheets to review some of the topics he's been struggling with including decimals and prime factorization."

"Today we went over the student' homework. We worked on problems using point slope and y intercept formulas, we worked on finding domains of functions, and we worked on problems where we needed to find if an equation was symmetrical in respect to the x axis, y axis, or origin. With the symmetry problems, I explained to him how important the exponent was in solving the equation because it has the ability to change the sign when the answer is simplified."

"We worked on integrals as antiderivatives. We reviewed the meaning of integrals and the properties (additive, negative, etc.). "

"The student and I reviewed a worksheet he had on solving simultaneous linear equations by substitution. This took some time to work through all of the problems. We then began work on his Problem of the Week. We did not finish, but I left him with ideas and some notes on how to complete this assignment. He worked well throughout the session."

"The student and I reviewed problems involving sketching polynomial functions given the equation. The student quickly mastered this task by using the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial to determine end behavior, and then using the zeros/ roots and multiplicity to understand the crossing points on the x axis. We also solved problems to find the equation for a polynomial given the roots, multiplicity, and a x/y coordinate. She also mastered this task. Finally, I introduced the process for long division of polynomials to prepare her for her next lesson."

"Tonight, the student and I worked on geometry. She identified the number of sides that various figures had and named those figures (pentagon, hexagon, etc.). Next, we worked on finding the perimeters of figures and solving word problems concerning perimeter. After that, we worked with money, figuring out the amount of a bill at a pet store and also the amount of change that should be returned. For reading, she read aloud a story about a girl who got new glasses and was then able to see the emotions of all the animals she came into contact with. She answered multiple-choice questions orally and then wrote answers to open-ended questions about the story."

"The student and I began with an assessment of her strengths and weaknesses in math, as well as our study plan for his upcoming exams. He will want to focus on understanding volume formulas as the hardest questions on his test are there. He is off to a great start and is picking up on the strategies well."

"The student and I covered inequalities this session, and he did a homework packet he had brought home. He is very open minded and receptive to instruction. We corrected some of his class work and made great progress; I even got him to smile!"

"I performed an aural assessment. I had the student close his eyes and tell me sight words that I spelled out loud; he did remarkably better than on his reading assessment. Words such as on, no that he consistently reads backwards in the past, he answered quickly and correctly. There were still a few words that he needed more prompting to correctly identify, and a few words that I had to wait 3+ seconds for his response. But overall, I was encouraged by the words he correctly and quickly (within 2 seconds) identified using my spelled prompts. We also played a kinesthetic game in which he found word flash cards placed randomly around the room; he found all of them within seconds. We played a matching bingo game to improve fluency and sight recognition speed. "

"The student and I reviewed her math homework together. Afterwards, we did reading comprehension and grammar practice. We covered backing up statements about a given text with the text itself, as well as the idea of a pronoun antecedent. She did very well, as the material I gave her was quite advanced, but she was able to figure out the right answer with guidance. "
