We began the session by playing some getting-to-know-you games. I learned he has triplet sisters and he learned I would never go sky-diving. We then discussed his previous Alg 2 semester to see how much material was covered. We discussed future plans: He has an ACT coming up and he aims to study Business in college. After building some rapport, we began to review problems together. We reviewed Algebra 1 skills such as: factoring, graphing linear equations, operations with exponents, and solving multi-step equations. It is apparent that J.Paul has a basic understanding of these skills, but is in need of remedial review before moving on. We will continue working this week reviewing necessary skills and then dive into the 2nd half of the content next week
