tutor 14

On June 16^th I met my tutee Matthew at Leroy Collins public library to go over his writing and grammar. To start off the session I let Matthew watch an episode of Regular Show and write about it. One thing I pointed out to Mathew was that he often begins sentences with the word “he”. I explained to him that although I knew who “he” was, it is proper grammar to address someone by their name or as a pronoun before referring to them as “he” or “she”. After going over Matthew’s analysis of the episode, I asked Matthew to write down what he learned from our tutor sessions.  Matthew wrote down that “I learned new grammar and writing things.” After Matthew finished writing about our sessions, I asked him what he thought he could improve on for the sixth grade next school year. Matthew wrote that he wanted to improve his vocabulary for next school year.
