Kane TS#6

May 19th I met with P.J. for our sixth time. This time neither his teacher nor mom gave me assignments to go over with him. I wanted to make this tutoring session fun, so I decided to find some articles and stories written about the popular video game MineCraft. P.J. multiple times had mentioned how much he likes this game, so I thought this would be good material for him. I ended up finding a story that was assigned a fifth grade reading level. I read through it and knew that P.J. could read and understand the story. I created ten comprehension questions to test whether or not P.J. was reading to comprehend or just reading because I said he had to. The lesson went very smooth and we were able to finish the story and the questions by the time our hour was up. This session was based once again on reading comprehension, but this time I was able to take an interest of P.J.’s and teach him through it. I believe this was much more enjoyable to P.J. that some of our last sessions with reading comprehension.
