Student Name: Mathew Hong
Date: Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Grade 4th Location:
Leon County – Leroy Collins, 4:30pm
Skill – Grammar (closed syllable) and Reading subject
He had a Cultural test exercise to practice. Helped him with defining culture, expressions
used in different cultures, and underline context words on a reading, finally he
added meaning to the words.
Matthew’s mother gave us permission to bring a 4th
grade story in order to replace the usual Mary Pope’s reading. To my surprise
when I presented Matthew with the story for him to read he started writing on
his homework book a summary of a Mary Popes story. I waited for him to finish
an asked what was he doing, my goal for him that day was to read a story from a
different writer. He told me since he was early at the library he read the story
before I showed up and proceeded to do his routine. Patience and persistence –
I decided to keep up reasoning with Matthew and asked him if his friends at
school read May Pope, some do some don’t. I told him of how interesting was the
story that I selected for him to read titled “The Fourth Tail” by Andrew
Frinkle. To my surprise at the end of our meeting he took the story to read at home,
some measure of success.
Helped him prepare for a Social Studies test. Subject – Men,
Women and Children in Societies. Compared tasks performed by families in the
past, chores done by family members compared with today. Interesting to see how
nowadays children do few in none chores at home.
Lesson Learned: Keep persevering on helping the student
change from a daily routine or pattern. Gradually they understand how
beneficial is change and it will help with behavior when facing new learning tasks
like reading.
