Tutoring #11 & #12

Mohammed Shaek
CIES
'Spelling & Defining"

     Today, I provided Mohammed with multiple worksheets on spelling and definitions.  First, I began with asking how his day was and what he got on his quizzes and presentations that he had to do the previous week.  He said he did well and that he was excited for the tutoring session for the day.  The first worksheet that we worked on was a reading passage.  I asked him to read the passage to me out loud and to underline any words he didn't know or understand.  I went over these words at the end of him reading and used them in a sentence.  After going over the words, I asked him to go over the passage again and correct any spelling or grammar mistakes that he saw.  He did not do very well on this reading passage, so I explained to him where the mistakes were and why they were wrong.  He understood why they were incorrect.  We moved onto the next reading passage and I asked him to do the same thing.  He read the passage out loud to me, I defined any words he did not understand and then he corrected the mistakes in the passage.  Mohammed understood this passage and its mistakes a lot better.
