Lesson Outline
I reviewed Reid's binder. From the teacher's notes and assessment grades, it appears that Reid struggles with the following: parts of speech, verb tense, prefix, and suffix definitions, and making inferences while reading. I will tailor my sessions to strengthen these areas.
Next, we reviewed Reid's spelling words for Friday's test (words with ch /sh/ and ch /k/. We went outside and played an "I Spy" game and encouraged Reid to brainstorm nouns, adjectives, and verbs. We reviewed the definition of each part of speech and the definition of a sentence (noun, verb, makes a complete thought, includes capital letters and punctuation.)
To conclude, we read a reading comprehension passage from ReadWorks, practicing reading comprehension and strategies (asking questions, making predictions, summarizing) as we went.

Lesson Comments
Reid works better when given a chance to move and be outside. In my opinion, his spelling words are arbitrary and address less common phonetic rules. Words included: chiffon, chute, chaperone, chemistry... not exactly everyday words.
He is clearly getting pressure from his parents to perform, but I don't think that they help him with his homework. I don't think he is dyslexic. He seems like a kid who didn't connect with online learning during the pandemic.
