"We did a review of this semester's concepts. We spent most of our time on graphing rational polynomials and simplifying rational polynomials. We discussed a new factoring strategy, and a factoring recipe (looking for common factors first, then trying trinomial factoring, or if it's a 4-part polynomial, factoring by grouping, or looking for sum of squares, etc.), and also how moving everything to one side could help solve a polynomial expression. I assigned her extra practice problems from her book. "

"We completed homework about finding the roots of quadratic equations. Then reviewed old homework about completing the square."

"The student had a new kind of homework assignment tonight - playing math games. She is generally a great student, and she absolutely understands the concepts, but the games on this site focused a little more on speed than she's used to. It was actually great to spend an evening building her mental math skills and helping her practice to do the problems even faster. After finishing the two assigned activities, we practiced even more by completing three optional lessons. All of the lessons revolved around factoring and graphing quadratic equations."

"The student has a big project for English that involves Transcendentalism and making a movie. We reviewed some of the basic concepts. By the end of the session, he had gotten a good start and even drafted some of the written part."

"The student was working on problems of uniform circular motion, and we paid special attention to how to set up the problems, mindful of the need of centripetal force and which way it points. There were some tricky problems involving banked curves and Ferris wheels, but we were able to work them out in good detail. I tried to point out significant details as we went, including the fact that objects in circular motion are not in equilibrium."

"Today it was all about circles. The student found the equation given center and a point, center and the radius, and center and diameter. Then she was given the equation and had to find center and radius. I think the most important thing she needs to remember is to square the radius when putting in standard form. Then she found arc length, arc measure, and area of sector. These coincided with finding circumference and area of circles. She did well, and just needs to remember that x is the arc measure, which is in degrees. I look forward to our next session."

"The student wanted to review derivatives and limits in preparation for his exam on Tuesday. We reviewed product and quotient rule along with chain rule. We also talked about limits approaching infinity and zero. Finally, we discussed graphs with discontinuities and discussing whether limits and derivatives existed there. The student seems to be doing really well. He just needs to re-memorize some of the derivative rules like that for natural log. "

"We started by reviewing the material from the last quiz, because the student can retake it and will do that on Tuesday. It went much better today and she has improved significantly with those problems. We will review this material again tomorrow so it is fresh on Tuesday. We also started reviewing the rest of the packet to prepare for the final and started filling out the sheet she will use during the test. "
