Lesson Outline
Mercer was tasked with writing the correct word in sentences when given two options from which to choose that were similar in sound and meaning. Mercer got all correct, using a strategy of elimination to figure out the correct spelling of ‘compliment’ or ‘complement’ used in the sentences given. Mercer was a bit reticent to compete the exercise initially but did not want it assigned for homework and so complied. In the interim, he challenged me to answer various geography questions. This gave him occasion to look up various countries and research interesting facts about them, including information and statistics about their remoteness, location, and whether active volcanoes could be found there.

Lesson Comments
Mercer displayed some tendencies towards destructive actions in the classroom - inserting his pencil in the door frame until I said I would need to bring it to the attention of administration (Mr. Pat) and he stopped. He also dropped pencil shavings on my sneaker and denied doing anything when questioned. I commended him on his earlier behavior and interactions and reminded him that he was on trial and he should be careful to behave appropriately. I successfully refocused him and we worked on an activity which he performed well until he was introduced to his next (new) teacher.
