TP #2 Madison

Wednesday I tutored Matthew just as I do every week. We started off with him reading silently to himself to work on his extensive reading. Then while he wrote his summary, I read his book to ensure he grasped the main concepts in the reading. Then I edited his summary for him and had him correct his own mistakes. Afterwards, he did his math homework. Usually, he doesn't have that much math homework, but this week he had a lot. I explain things in his homework if he doesn't understand and I always read through his homework to make sure all of his answers are correct. To conclude the session we practiced his spelling words. I gave him a short spelling quiz which he got a 100 on.

  1. Matthew is a child, right? Do you find it difficult to teach him how to find the main concepts in reading? (It's not easy with the CIES students...)

  2. Great work, Madison! You are really getting the hang of this. Was Matthew able to recognize and correct his errors?
