"We went over Chapter 3. We did a lot of practice problems on Chapter 3. I also left a plenty of practice for the student to do. It will help her to prepare the test. "

"In this session, I covered homework problems the student had for the hypotenuse theorem. We first went over her previous quiz and I explained the problems where she had gotten points taken off. She was able to do them correctly after. Then, I walked through the theorem step-by-step until she understood better. She then worked on homework problems related to the hypotenuse theorem. I helped her with several problems to set up the correct proportions and how to find/get to right answers. Over time, she absorbed the material better and was able to do problems on her own at the end. Our session was productive."

"The student had finished her first day of a two-day test in her Algebra class. We reviewed all of the items from the study guide so that she could get her test back the next day and correct or re-work any problems she had not understood the first day. This was the study guide and test for Chapter 9, so it was on the same types of problems she has been working on over the past few weeks, including adding and subtracting polynomials, multiplying binomials and polynomials using the distributive property and FOIL, factoring, and solving equations using the zero property. The student did well by the time she finished the study guide and seemed pretty confident with the material."

"In today's session we worked on a review packet covering topics including complementary, supplementary, and vertical angles. The biggest problem that seemed to come up for the student was how to tackle each problem; once we were past that she did very well. We tried to focus on techniques for identifying and starting problems based on the information available, but this is something that is going to take more practice. I also noticed she struggled with fractions and I am going to try and find some review material for her because that is something she is going to need to understand throughout this course. We are going to continue working on this same material in our next session."

"Today the student and I worked on graphing functions, word problems, distance between points, areas, volumes, and problem solving."

"The student studied for her Geometry exam. We organized her studies to include the properties of quadrilaterals, parallelograms, rhombus, rectangles, and squares. We discussed bisecting lines, their functions, how they measure, opposite angles, and supplementary angles. We also used the process of elimination and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve some problems and proofs. This session was quite helpful to her as she, as able to see how each of the quadrilaterals relate to one another and understands their functions and properties. "

"We continued our work of linear systems, and used tabular values to find slope, y intercept and the graph of the equation. We discussed material for the next day, and also reviewed slope intercept form of a line and how to find these values from a variety of data forms. We also reviewed the student's Language Arts stems for a quiz on Friday."

"Today we reviewed the homework for section 4.2 which focuses on finding the area under a curve using summation (sigma notation). There were only 6 problems, 4 of which were extremely elementary. The other two involved finding the lower and upper sums for a specified region bounded by a specific graph. As we worked on these last 2 problems, I explained to him how to set up the lower sum using the left endpoints, and the upper sum using the right endpoints. Then we proceeded to find each sum using the summation of the areas of each rectangle formed by the subintervals of the graph. He seemed to understand this process much better as it made more sense to him."

"The student had a three page worksheet on math. He completed it fairly independently. I just had to clarify several points, and then he knew what to do. Then, we discussed a document based analysis for government on the document he had to review on the First Amendment Supreme Court decisions. He was supposed to answer how and why student's First Amendment rights have changed over time. We developed points for each of the decisions. He is to get more instruction tomorrow in school. "

"In met with the student today to review his homework assignment. His teacher assigned a worksheet on volume and on the box and whiskers. She chose these topics after the extensive 8th grade math review. He did well on these topics, but needs to memorize the volume formulas and procedures. We will continue to work on this. "

"Today the student and I studied for her trig test. She is feeling anxious for her test tomorrow but I know she is prepared to do much better than her last test because she really understands the information. It's just about memorization and knowing what to use when at this point. She will do great!"
