"We covered simplifying expressions. I gave the student practice problems because she had some trouble with adding/multiplying negative and positive numbers while working with variables and coefficients. "

"Reviewed for upcoming test on conic sections. Reviewed formulas for determining important characteristics for all four types of conic sections and discussed how to identify conic section type from general form of equation. Completed review assignment and began working on test from previous year. Stressed importance of memorizing the equations to determine the important characteristics of the different conic sections."

"During our session, we reviewed Section 7.1 from her textbook on sequences. She worked on homework problems but did have some trouble with writing rules for sequences. However, once she completed practice problems and I provided explanations, she was able to clear up any confusion she had. We then continued to review Section 7.2 on Arithmetic Sequences and Series. She completed homework assignments (in advance) from Sections 7.1 and 7.2. She did a great job understanding the problems and applying the rules from these sections! "

"I had the student discuss with me what the class worked on today. He explained they started on a new concept - laws of motion. He showed me the graphic organizer that he began in class to give the students definitions and information on the 3 Laws of Motion. I had him create note cards for the first two laws of motion. He wrote the definition on the front, circled key words, and placed an image, symbols, or keywords to help him remember the definition. We watched a video explaining the 1st and 2nd laws of motion."

"The student has a midterm in Algebra 2, so we reviewed the practice test packet he had gotten from his teacher. The packet covered the entire section, consisting largely of absolute value inequalities, systems of equations, and solving for missing values. He had some difficulty with absolute value inequalities but taking the time to re-read the questions to see what needs to be solved really helped. We also discussed alternate methods to solve and graph systems of equations and inequalities, which would be useful in a test situation where notes are not readily available. Overall, he seemed well-prepared for the midterm, I think he will do really well on the test. "

"I worked on math problems with the student. We worked on multiplying two and three digit numbers with and without decimals. She was doing great and was understanding the order of operations she needs to perform. She has also been working on ounces and pounds and so I gave her practice problems on converting from ounces to pounds and she did very well with that also. The last thing we did was go over some more times tables and I wrote down the facts she still needed to work on. "

"The student and I reviewed for his upcoming exam. We discussed identifying five types of chemical reactions (synthesis versus decomposition, single versus double displacement, and combustion), predicting the products knowing the reactants and the type of reaction (including adding new subscripts balance out the charge in a neutral compound), balancing reactions and applying a temporary fraction during the balancing process for combustion reactions, setting up simple stoichiometry to convert between mole and mass, identifying limiting reactants and calculating the amount of products based on the limiting reactant, determining the percent yield of a reaction based on the theoretical, and actual yield. He mastered balancing reactions, and he was unsure about limiting reactant, so we tried a few examples which helped clear things up."

"We reviewed and fixed the student's homework. We read Dogs at Work level M and took a quiz. I reminded him to go back to the story if he couldn't remember something. He then wrote 6 sentences about working dogs. We also read Hannah's Townspeople, level J. He got a 100% on the quiz."

"Tuesday: The student and I went through her homework, finishing up slope intercept form. Then, we went to work on her study guide for her test. She showed me the scores from her last two quizzes, and they were both 100%!! She also said she was the only person to get 100% on the last quiz, and one of two students to get an A grade overall on the quiz. Thursday: We worked through the student's homework, finding the X and Y intercepts and the slope before graphing the equation. She is understanding the material with very few errors, if any, mostly common simple mistakes."

"Today, we started by talking a bit about the student's science project. He wanted some help writing a summary about it, so I gave him a few pointers. His experiment seemed simple enough that he could write everything about it down and the summary wouldn't be too long, so my advice to him was basically to write down everything and answer the questions: What did you do? Why? What were the results? We then moved on to cover some of his math topics. We have already talked about angles during the last two sessions, so I skipped ahead and talked with him about the Pythagorean Theorem again. He did moderately well with finding the hypotenuse of a triangle when both sides were given."

"We went over some problems to go over limits, with some trigonometry and algebra background throughout to thoroughly understand the problem. The student was very proactive and was very clear on what she understood or didn't understand, which was extremely helpful for me. It seemed that many of the ambiguities were due to the course instructor's style and pace, so it was great to be able to go over these topics. We will continue reviewing the problems on Thursday. "

"Today the student and I worked on finding surface area and volume of cylinders and cones. We also found the volume of a sphere. He wrote down all of the formulas on a 3 x 5 card in preparation for his test. We also worked on the formulas and plugging in the values. He has a good understanding of the material. Finally, we worked on I=prt, the formula for simple interest. Initially, he did not understand, but with a little work and practice he had a better understanding. He asks good questions and remains focused for each lesson. "
