"Today we worked on different operations of fractions, as review for an upcoming test. This included dividing algebraic fractions, ratio and proportions, and solving for a variable in fractional equalities. Two concepts were stressed: cross multiplying and cancelling for the purpose of reducing. The student needed help with knowing which problems warranted the process of cross multiplication. We clarified the conditions to look for, such as when there is a fraction on either side of an equal sign (ratio and proportion problem). "

"We worked on word problems, order of operations, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions."

"In this session the student and I continued to practice series and sequences as she had a test on Thursday. She was more comfortable with the ratio test, geometric series, p-series, and the integral test, but was uncomfortable with the comparison tests, so we went over those in depth. "

"We covered significant figures and unit conversions. He seems to have a fair grasp on the topics at first observation. He did struggle with conversion units at first, but we covered what are the best approaches to them. I suggested some ways to also understand the differences in types of matter (i.e. element, compound, and mixtures). I do not have any scores or grades at this time to report. He has a quiz on the topics we covered tomorrow. "

"We went over the problems she missed on her review test. She was able to show me how to solve the problems and get the right answers which shows me she knows how to solve them. She learned how to translate word problems into equations. This session went a lot better than the last one. I gave her the problems from the book as homework. "

"The student and I continued our review for her geometry final exam today. We worked on chapters 9 & 10. She said that the homework (chapter tests) for 7 & 8 went well, but she did comment that she had used her book a few times and that it would be infinitely easier for her on the test if she could use notes, flashcards, the book, etc. She could probably use more practice before the exam."

"With the students, I covered math concepts they struggled with on their practice and diagnostic tests to determine if they were making strategy or component errors in their work. I also quizzed Student 1 on his root word vocabulary knowledge. We then discussed using strategies and the importance of completing every math problem on paper, so as not to make mistakes on the test. "

"For the assessment exam, there are some sections that are much different than the SSAT. We are focusing on all areas, but especially those sections that are different. To start, the student answered 80% of the Logic questions for the Verbal section correctly. For the language skills, commas are covered, which she scored a 70% on. I covered the rules for commas so that they are clear. On the main idea practice, she answered all 6 short passage main idea questions correctly. She is going to practice 10 problems with longer passages on her own before Sunday. "

"Today, we did the final preparation for the student's upcoming exam tomorrow. We reviewed vertex form of a parabola and how to use that to find the equation of the parabola with given characteristics. We also worked on graphing parabolas, determining the domain and range, and finding the maximum and minimum values."

"The student and I worked through several problems dealing with mole to mass conversions. I started off with an explanation of the relationship between balanced chemical equations and the ratio of moles between reactants and products. The more problems we worked with, the more comfortable she was with handling more complicated questions. With a bit more practice, she will have no problem with mole to mass conversions on her upcoming quiz. "

"The student, in anticipation of his final examination scheduled for Friday this week, was reviewing a study guide of problems. These included recognizing and identifying sinusoidal graphs and equations, calculating elements of geometric shapes such as arcs, and included angles of circles and trigonometric functions and relationships. He is catching up for the test, and has several areas he must memorize in order to succeed in the test, such as the unit circle, to recall the values of trig functions in various quadrants. For his part, his reasoning is good; he needs practice to gain confidence in these areas. We will continue with an additional session this week before the test. "
