"I asked the student when I arrived how he thought he did on his science exam. He said the BCR's were easy....they were similar to ones we had done. He said he thought he did well. Math- He had four problems on a worksheet to finish. He did that easily. Science- He had an assignment to complete for tonight (2 pages that is due tomorrow). He finished that with no problem. He has a good grasp of phase change and was able to finish these with little effort. We went through the teaching sheets and he completed those two pages. On Monday night we will complete the next 2 worksheets and study for the quiz next Tuesday. He was positive and worked really hard."

"Today we covered the following concepts: continuous/discrete distributions, different types of averages (mean/median/mode), graphical representations of data, computing the mean and range, interpreting z-scores, interpreting distribution curves, probability, using z-tables, statistical inference, sampling, and confidence interval interpretation. "

"We went over applications of trigonometric identities, simplifying expressions, and proving equations. We reviewed various problems until the student felt comfortable doing the problems on his own. He seems ready for an upcoming quiz on Wednesday. "

"The student first wanted to look at his chemistry. He had just started redox reactions in class and he wanted to go over a few of the examples of redox reactions he had been given for practice. First we discussed what the steps were for balancing a redox reaction, and then he did 3 of the problems from his practice sheet. Next, he wanted to have me check his work while he went through the day's assignment. Problems included: finding the area of an irregular triangle using Heron's formula and determining the missing length of sides or angles for a triangle using the law of sines or the law of cosines."

"We worked on fractions today. I gave her a timed test. We also did some coordinate plane work, as well as some word problems I made up based on what I feel she needs to work on. "

"The student has made great strides this summer. We have been focusing on putting detail into his writing. At first, he would do the 'bare minimum' - write only what was required. But, as the summer progressed, his writing began to be more detailed. As a summer project, I gave him writing prompts that have turned into a mini novel. My hope is that, after the sessions are over, he will continue in the progress that he has made."

"Today, I reviewed the new verbs that we learned last week with the students. We also learned a bit of a song to help them out. They are doing really well with the older verbs, but we still need to work more on the new ones. However, I was impressed with how much they did remember and with how quickly they were able to pick up some of the new material."

"Today, we continued to work with inequalities, slope intercept formula, and graphing equations. This included changing equations to the y intercept formula, using coordinates to determine if the points are valid for a given equation, and graphing the equation for a given inequality and determining if the line is dotted or solid and the shading is above or below the line. The student understood the concepts and did a number of practice problems working with these concepts to complete her homework assignment. "

"The student needed to complete an online assignment dealing with trigonometric functions of angles, in addition to studying for a vocabulary exam. We went through the pre-calculus in 45 minutes, since he had no issues with it. I then quizzed him on the vocabulary terms, which he mostly had memorized already. He was able to memorize the rest within the remaining 15 minutes."

"We began the session discussing a written science assignment on ecosystems. Here, I pushed the student to rephrase part of the question into her answer so that she was answering in full sentences. She was asked to read both the passage and questions aloud. Next, we worked on reading skills, and she read several pages of a Harry Potter book out loud. She is very strong at sounding out new words and quickly bringing new words into her vocabulary. For math, we started with a card game that tested her speed with her multiplication facts up to ten. Next, she completed 2 division sets using multiples up through nine. To end, she reviewed her spelling words from the previous week with a quick quiz, and she didn't miss any words!"

"The student is doing exceptionally well. She completed her weekend homework and I gave her an overview of the lecture she missed on Friday. She does have test coming up on Thursday that we are working towards. I am confident in her ability to score a B. She is quickly understanding the material and flying though her homework with little to no issues. Graphing is a unit that many students struggle in; however, she has surprised me by being able to produce the graphs very easily. I think that her using the note cards with the basic notes on them as her study tools has helped her as well as doing the other problems that her teacher might not assign, but use them as additional practice. Overall, she has made great strides to improve her grade since we began working together."
