Dennis TS#12


My third session with David went smoothly. I started with a free-write prompt to get him interested, which asked him to make a public statement as the president, after people are scared when aliens are seen landing on earth. This was a fun activity where he could role-play as a leader who would be the voice of calm and reason. After that I worked with him on a worksheet where he would correct errors in verb tense and agreement. Again, part of my lesson focused on him reading paragraphs, and together we would isolate where a mistake had occurred. Then I would ask him questions, like what tense should the verb be in, is the noun singular or plural, etc, to help coach him through the corrections. I also quizzed him with a parts of speech questionnaire and on the questions he missed, I took time to revisit those topics and refresh his memory with examples.
