"We started learning about how to graph quadratics we also began to study the student's new Spanish chapter. "

"The student completed the last part of the math assessment. He did well with number facts and operations, solving problems involving time, and reading graphs and interpreting data. Today, I began to the teach him the understanding of multiplication to solve problem and the beginning concepts of fractions. He did well."

"Today, we covered area between two curves. I went over the student's homework. She was able to go through the homework with minimal assistance. After the 6 problems of homework, we worked through the area problems under the practice problems sets. These were much harder than the homework problems so she needed some explanation, but after she understood the concept, she was able to find the area. "

"We worked on multiplying and dividing fractions with word problems. We need some more work in this area. I plan to continue next session. "

"In this session, the student and I worked on simple algebraic equations with one solution, infinite solutions, and no solutions. He felt confident about this material, and could answer some deeper questions about it, and apply the concepts to novel problems. We spent part of the session discussing how he has organized his binders, how he uses his planner, and we talked about what he thinks his teacher's expectations are for him. Wherever possible, I embed reminders to use good study skills. For example, today I asked him to use scratch paper for his homework, and practice showing all of his work, instead of trying to cram all the work and answers into small spaces on his worksheet."

"Today, the student and I mainly reviewed for his upcoming algebra test. I feel he is really understanding the material much better than when we first started. He asks questions, he completes problems on his own, and he even began to correct his own mistakes without being prompted! I am so proud of him! We also made a to-do list for tomorrow, and we will complete the algebra review at our next meeting to ensure he is ready for the test!"

"We went over a homework problem where a block slid down a ramp into another block. The problem included concepts such as the energy conservation principle, the momentum principle, use of mechanics equations, summing forces, collisions, and free body diagrams. We went through the problem step by step and discussed in depth each of these concepts. The student said that going through step by step and talking about the conceptual foundation helped her a lot."

"The student did work with polynomial expressions, factoring, and exponents for his benchmark work that was assigned to him. I did not help him with the majority of his work as he was instructed to do the work on his own so that the teacher could see how he was understanding the material. I only told him to remember to show his work rather than do it all in his head."

"The student and I covered operations involving exponents. I first gave him a mini lecture on multiplying and dividing exponents. He finished his math worksheet with time left, so I decided to write more practice problems in his notebook. "

"We covered specifically the student's notes from her lecture, which was in regards to the tops of molars mass, formula mass, percent yield, empirical formulas, and related subjects. She was struggling to understand the bigger concept at hand initially, but once we did a couple of problems together and she showed her work, she was able to understand the bigger picture. I told her to do some more related practice problems in the book. "

"The student read an article about the origins of pizza and reviewed vocabulary such as "nonfiction"" and "prediction" as well as new vocabulary such as "heading." The student did a great job of using previously covered strategies to read difficult words and had many small victories. She was especially successful when she used the context of the sentence to help her. The student also wrote several complete sentences to make predictions and to recap what she learned in the article. The student also reviewed some of the more challenging words from last week to help her recognize them next time she reads them. "
