Today I encouraged Patrick to complete an inferring assessment independently. He was very apprehensive, so I did the first 2 with him. Then he did 2 with me sitting next him and lastly I stepped out of the room for him complete the 5th problem. I could hear him reading to himself aloud. When he got stuck he opened the door to ask for help. I helped him with 2 words. He then completed the problem independently and with 100% accuracy! Then I read and we discussed another chapter of Invisible Stanley.
