tutor 4

On May 18^th, I went back to LeRoy Collins library to tutor Matthew about writing and reading comprehension. After the success of my drawing activity from last lesson (have Matthew draw pictures and then create a narrative around the sketches), I thought that I would try it again. Matthew, however, was not excited about the activity this week; when I instructed him to doodle and write a story, he quickly drew a stick figure shooting another stick figure with a bow and arrow and wrote “He is dead the end”. Sensing that Matthew was uninterested in the same activity from last lesson, I told him that he could pick a book and write about that instead. Matthew chose a book about Lamborghini cars and after reading wrote down some facts about Lamborghini’s. Matthews’s description about the logo and history of the Lamborghini was grammatically correct, but when he was talking about the speed of a car, he wrote “Some lambos have 213 mph.” I asked him how to fix this sentence and he quickly changed the “have” to “go”.
