"Today the student and I had our final session of the year by reviewing the majority of the topics which we've covered this semester. We went over the review sheet we talked about last week, this time though taking a closer look at the problems. We focused on the primary areas of exponential equations, graphing equations, and word problems. I tried an alternate route of explaining the principal of making a negative exponent the reciprocal of the positive, and I think that helped him a little bit. I asked him to again write the equation x^-2 = 1/x^2 on his test when he gets it so he's reminded of it, so I hope that will help. He seemed good with sequences, even better than last time, so I believe he should be okay in that regard. Overall a good session, and I wish him good luck on his final."

"The student started the study of conic sections. We have reviewed the circle, the parabola, and the ellipsis."

"The student and I went over his study guide for the final. I encouraged him to try at least a problem or two from the covered topics. He needs a bit more work on altitude on hypotenuse, and circle bisectors, and it would definitely benefit him to work through all the topics one more time. The student was able to complete all the extra credit he was given, and he says he was able to get credit for all but three of them. He also said he got a B on his last test, so between those two, and the final, he should be able to get a good grade."

"The student is starting to use strategies that I've shown her to solve problems on her own. I gave her a few math facts to learn by our next session as well as a game to practice on her own. We talked about rounding, and she seems to be getting better at it. We discussed Monday's homework, which covered a variety of topics. She worked the problems on her own and was able to get them correct. "

"The student and I went through anything and everything she missed as she tries to catch up in her math class. We learned how to draw a perpendicular segment bisector, an angle bisector, as well as how to fundamentally understand why each work the way they do. We also started reviewing all of the postulates, theorems, and equations in geometric proofs. I was happy to hear that she understands that she is the master of her own destiny, and if she wants to improve her mathematical ability, it is going to take confidence in herself and a commitment to improvement. The next session is set for next Monday. "

"In today's session we began by reading a short story. First the student and I read it together, then he read it by himself. He did fairly well on this reading. Next, he wrote a short story from 3 words taken from the story we read. He then read his story to me and I corrected spelling and punctuation. The last thing we did was read several pages from a book about space. This book is a bit challenging to the student so we read it together twice, before he attempted it on his own. He did ok with all but the biggest words. "

"The student completed her spelling homework. Her social studies homework was about her parent's ancestry, so I left that out for her to complete with her mom and dad. We continued working on subtraction facts. She is starting to feel better about subtraction. I am going to start having her do 5 minutes with subtraction flash cards and 5 minutes with addition flash cards every day. She wrote in her journal and read for 20 minutes."

"We covered quadratic equations, finding the vertex, factoring, group factoring, and drawing quadratic functions. The student was able to answer her homework questions perfectly. By the end of the session, she was able to show me how to work on the material above and get to the right answer. We only did the problems from her homework packet and textbook as extra practice."

"During this session, we reviewed everything that the student has been learning in her math class for the past few weeks. We covered the topics of graphing systems of equations and using substitution and elimination to solve systems of equations. She did very well. Then we looked forward about solving systems of equations by elimination using multiplication. She caught on with the material very quickly and did very well. The only thing she still struggles with is making avoidable mistakes sometimes, but she understood all the content very well."

"Today the student reported she got an 88% on her recent test which is great! Today she wanted to work on raising multiple variables to an exponent since she struggled on it in her homework. We spent about half of the session working on this skill and she greatly improved! We even mixed in the future concept of dividing exponents. When she felt very comfortable with this, we spent our last few minutes talking about the power of 0. "

"The student has an upcoming test this week. We went over his review problems for homework. The test is based on his unit in solving/evaluating functions with rational exponents as well as conceptual applications such as compound interest and geometric roots. He had trouble converting a percentage into an integer, but he was able to do so successfully by the end of the session. He understood the concepts of the chapter and was able to apply the concepts successfully once he had all of his equations. As always, he had a great attitude."

"The student had a test coming up, so we reviewed a variety of subjects. One subject we covered was using the 90-60-30 formula to find the missing side lengths of triangles. We also went over angle bisectors and related properties. Then, we went over the various types of angle symmetry. At first, she had some trouble with the order to write the points in an equation, but with practice, she improved. "
