"This was the first day of school. Since the last session, I was forwarded materials for the algebra curriculum, which will be tested in January. Today's session was based on the first portion of the curriculum, including working with real numbers, evaluating expressions with inequalities, and simplifying square roots. We reviewed core concepts for each topic, followed by working through various sample problems. The student did well with evaluating expressions with inequalities using real numbers. We had more trouble with manipulating square roots. We honed in on converting between square roots, variables, and squares. We also reviewed simplifying numbers into prime numbers and using this to help simplify square roots. I encouraged her throughout the session to talk out her math processes and write everything down to help everything make as much sense as possible. We recapped the basics of the concepts we covered today, and I gave her a sample square root variable equation to sub in her choice of numbers to work on and go over for next time. "

"This session involved some test preparation. We covered some areas that we touched on in last session. I answered specific questions from student on price elasticity of demand, the midpoint formula, and absolute elasticity. She continues to have a good attitude toward her work and only seems to need reinforcement in certain areas of mathematical calculations. She is going to contact me to set up her next session after she gets her next assignment. "

"The student and I brainstormed ideas for the science fair, identified one of interest, and discussed and developed a project. She is interested in how technology impacts people. The study designed compares reading comprehension between electronic and print media. She struggles a little bit with spelling, but has great ideas. She was able to identify what interested her and what didn't."

"During today's session, the student and I continued reviewing the math sections in his SAT prep book. He had already completed a whole practice test on his own so we went through and I helped him with the problems he got wrong or omitted. He was very attentive during our session and he understood each problem after I explained the process. He seemed to have the most trouble with word problems- especially the grid-ins. As a result, I tried to focus a lot on how to tackle and break down the heavier word problems. "

"Today, the student and I went over the surface area and volume of composite shapes. He did very well with finding the surface area and volume of cubes and rectangular prisms, but he had some difficulty with cylinders and 3D triangles. However, I demonstrated how the volume of any shape, particularly a cylinder, is just going to be the area of the face, the circle, multiplied by the length it passes through, the height. This seemed to help him a lot, and I have no doubt that he will be able to recall this information for future problems. He and I also worked on the digestive system video, and he added some entertaining educational content. It is amazing what he can do when he puts his mind to it, and I look forward to working with him again. "

"Last night, the student and I worked on vocabulary and grammar. We used the vocab book to analyze a short narrative and answer vocabulary based questions. He did fairly well and demonstrated understanding of the words. We also worked on grammar. We reviewed comma use and began to work with colons and semicolons. She quickly mastered some of the colon rules. Next week, we will go through all of the grammar concepts we have worked on thus far. "

"The student and I continued working on vocabulary. We added two more words from chapter 10 and practiced using the words in sentences. Each of us illustrated 10 words and traded papers to guess the words and definitions. She is making good progress. She is doing well identifying character development as we progress through the book. Her homework is to create short scenes using at least four of the vocab words. "

"The student and I focused most of today's session on building her word recognition skills. She is becoming adept at matching pictures to words. Her main challenge is to remember to look at the rest of the letters past the first letter and to work on sounding out a word using the letters in order from left to right. "
