"The student mentioned not being able to attend class for the first lesson of the unit, so we went ahead and talked about potential types of problems he would be dealing with for his make up work and we looked ahead toward future lessons. We talked about Counting Methods such as Permutation and Combination with its relationship to Probability. Then we talked about different types of problems for Probability such as coin toss, dice roll, picking a card, as well as independent and dependent probability. We briefly talked about Pascal's Triangle and the Binomial Theorem, which is a topic that's a little further down the line of this unit. He was quick to pick up on the concepts and noticed subtle patterns within this topic. I left him extra practice on permutation and combination to be done when the topic is officially introduced in the class. He has studied two units since I've first started working with him, but he has not gotten his grade back for the former unit and had just finished the latter. Hopefully he can get those soon so that we can address any problems he is having."

"Today we worked mostly on converting between parametric and rectangular coordinates. We also talked about the mirror equation and finding the image/magnification for different types of mirrors - convex/concave/plane. The student did very well with the concepts here. He just had a little trouble converting polar/parametric to rectangular at first, but I reminded him how to do it, and he did fine. "

"Today the student was assigned a group project for her math class. Her group needs to teach the class about interest. We started the session off with a few worksheets to make sure that the had the concepts mastered. Then we prepared for how she would present to the class by writing up a little lesson plan with definitions, explanations, the formula, and a 2 example problems. She then starting working on the homework assignment she has to make for her classmates. She did really well writing questions and using the concepts. She seemed to have a lot of fun coming up with the scenarios. She plans to finish writing the homework questions during our next session on Tuesday."

"* The student defined 90 of the 210 7th grade vocab words. * We began working on a new vocab list, ensuring he knew the definitions. * We read the next chapter of the Hardy Boys book."

"We covered a wide array of topics from limits, discontinuities, and the basic derivative rules. It seems that the student was well prepared and knowledgeable, he just needed clarification regarding certain notations and application. I explained key hints that will hint at what derivation rule to use and gave him some shortcuts."

"We reviewed geometric mean, solving for missing side / angles given knowledge of two similar triangles, and general geometric problem-solving techniques (cross multiplying, algebra, for example). The student did quite well. He completed his homework. We will continue to review geometric mean next Monday. "

"Today we covered area approximation using definite integrals. The student seemed comfortable with definite integrals, but we need to work on the left and right approximations. Tomorrow we plan on him finishing up his assigned homework and starting on his new section, 7.4."

"We proceeded through a good hour of practicing the 100 most-used words, comics, a children's book set, and a new step, in which I'll write out a simple sentence for the student to read. This is another step in retaining her interest in reading full sentences. She is showing good progress in sticking with it and remaining with the current project. I believe that once she gets a solid foundation of often-used words and is able to read the simple sentences, she'll then move very quickly to reading paragraphs and ultimately, books."

"We went over more trig problems. The student seems to be getting a better grasp on the material. Once I explained the missing parts or reminded her about the unit circle or right triangles, she did a good job of understanding what was going on."

"Today we covered chapter 37, which deals with interactions between different populations. These interactions can either be beneficial or not depending on the nature of the relationship between the participants. We looked at how human activity can put a strain on this balance and even completely ruin an ecosystem by introducing an invasive species. "

"Yesterday, I worked with the student on review and practice with more reading comprehension sheets at the 4th grade level. We covered the book she had read last week, "Dance Team Dilemma," and we discussed the main ideas of the book. Then we completed a review of a 4th grade reading comprehension sheet together as I gave her strategies on how to complete it efficiently. She then completed another 4th grade comprehension sheet on her own to determine if she learned from the lesson. The student was very motivated to read and complete her assignments. I used the incentive of receiving a prize when she completes 10 objectives from all our sessions. I left her with a book to read in her free time. I noted she completed and received 100 percent for her assignments that were completed. "
