"Today we worked on a worksheet on disk method for volumes of solids of revolution. The student is doing fine with these types of problems. We also did some work in her AP Calculus problems. "

"We covered grammar lessons 1,2,3,4, and 7 in preparation for the student's test. We reviewed the four types of sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. We also reviewed subjects, predicates, simple sentences, and compound sentences. We did practice review exercises both from the textbook and made our own example sentences. The student understands all the grammar points and seems very confident in her understanding. I left her with some tasks to do In order to prepare for her coming social studies test. She should make note cards containing the key terms, dates, and concepts from her chapter reading. Also, after reading through the chapter, summarize main points in each section in the chapter. Lastly, she should pose questions about the reading to check to comprehension. "

"This was my first session with the student, so part of the time was spent getting to know each other. I looked over some math worksheets she was already working on. I then gave her 25 3rd grade appropriate multiplication problems to work on - "fast facts" - utilizing numbers between 0-12. This was to get an assessment of her basic math skills. We reviewed a trick for memorizing multiplication by 9. The student also worked on a multiplication chart worksheet, a fractions worksheet, and a double digit multiplication worksheet. She grasps multiplication conceptually and only needs to work on memorization, "mind math." Then we moved on to reading. I asked the student to read a short paragraph for a fluency assessment. We changed texts so that I could get a better understanding of her fluency and she read from Bad Kitty. Her fluency is great and she easily works through sounding out more difficult words and fitting them into sentences with good prosody. "

"The student needed help reviewing a take home quiz he had for this week, so we worked through some of the problems on it. He just needed a fill-in tutor for one session."

"More than anything this time we worked on trying to use examples and quotations from selections the student had read in class to write an essay about a Puritan value. The student selected the value and some examples and then went to work writing. I reminded him how to introduce quotations and explain their background before putting them in a paper. I also wanted him to not worry about making his papers perfect on his first run through. It is more important to write the ideas down and make edits later than meticulously try and make each sentence perfect as you write."

"We worked on proofs that involved parallel lines, angles formed by parallel lines and transversal, equation of straight line, equation of a line perpendicular to a given line and passing through a given point."

"The student and I reviewed for her quiz on Monday. It was on functions: domain, range of functions, telling if its a function or not, graphs of functions and identifying the type of function. She did a great job with the practice problems we did, and I thought she had a good understanding of the topics. We also went over direct and inverse variations, which she said had some problems with, but she understood it after going over it. I thought she was ready for the quiz on Monday and did excellent in our session today."

"The student and I reviewed the vocabulary words she has been learning. I took out flashcards she has learned and added some new flashcards. We reviewed 3's multiplication facts and used an array to help her see the relationship between multiplication and division facts. We read from a book of her choice to work on decoding and comprehension skills."

"We started by continuing to practice the student's multiplication math facts: 2's, 3's, and 4's. She seems a lot more comfortable with 3's. We then worked on a multiplication color by answer worksheet. Because the worksheet is mixed facts, we do a little each day. I hope to be done with this by the end of the week. We then worked on multiplication story problems. The last thing we did was work on a few reading concepts. We again worked on the difference between common and proper nouns."

"We went over optimization questions for the entire time. The student understood the basic concepts of how to approach the question, such as knowing that 2 equations were required. In some instances, he was a little confused about how to set up the question. However, once he accomplished that, he was very good at solving them accurately and quickly, which will help him tremendously on his exam. Overall, it was a very good session and he most likely learned a lot about how to do optimization questions he hasn't seen before. "

"The student said he has a test coming up, so he wanted to go over as many topics as possible during this session. We covered related rates, optimization, L'Hopital's Rule, particle motion, and understanding the graphs of derivatives of functions. He had some trouble visualizing how the graph of derivative of a function is related to the actual function, but with my understanding and explanation, he had a clear idea. Also, he was not sure how to find antiderivatives, but after a couple of practice problems, he got the understanding of it. He had a positive attitude and was eager to participate in the discussion/ learning. During this session, I included one practice problem from an old AP calculus exam on a similar topic. Toward the end of the session, he felt more confident and better prepared for the test."

"We went over metabolism for the student's test tomorrow. She seemed to be doing very well with the material. She said that repeatedly quizzing her over the questions had helped her a lot for her last test."
