Recent African-American History Tutoring Session Notes
I worked with the student on reviewing material that she had learned the past week in school. Throughout this process I assessed the student continuously and found that she had a great understanding of the topics. I also went ahead and did some pre-teaching on topics she will be introduced to throughout the next week.
Today the student and I went over his math test. I spoke to him and his mom about how I thought they should go about some strategies with dealing with teachers. Afterwards, we worked on an English assignment. Finally, I showed him how he should make an outline to help study for his social studies test. My strategy is to work in new study techniques during our meetings to help him slowly discover new ways that work for him.
The student worked on a project for school. She had to compose a paragraph in which she chose a side in Revolutionary times and explained her choice. She did an excellent job choosing her words, spelling them correctly, writing neatly and communicating clearly! Well done!
The student reviewed social studies in his test prep book. He should do well on the social studies section of the exam.
He also learned decimal multiplication for tenths (124.5 x 34.5).
We started to review for the student's finals coming up in two weeks. We went over some vocabulary and critical thinking questions. As a study aid, I asked her to take some notes as she reviewed the book that we can go over next week.
Today we worked on preparing for the student's social studies test on Friday. We read the first chapter together and I asked her questions to test her comprehension. We also reviewed some questions the teacher had told them would likely appear on the test. Then we made colored flashcards to practice the vocabulary words from the chapter. I told her to continue studying those words after I left today.
