I met with Astin for the 5^th time on Friday. Astin came to me excited that he can create a maze. His mom printed out another worksheet for him, this time about camping, and suggested that we do that instead. I offered to solve his maze if he did the worksheets his mother printed with him, which he completed. He doesn’t seem to have problems writing, but as usual, he tends to write his s’ backwards and I try to correct that if possible. After completing the worksheets, I stayed to my word but I wanted him to complete another reading comprehension worksheet, one about family that I printed for him while I did his maze. Although it took a little extra time because I didn’t quite understand a maze made by a 6-year old, he completed the worksheets as he promised. At the end of the session, his mother said I can assign homework for him. I asked him if he’s alright with homework, which he enthusiastically agreed. I was honestly surprised that a kid would say yes to homework and gave him another worksheet that I had prepared, one about a blue house and I plan to go over it when I see him on Wednesday.
