Rowan and I worked through a couple of reading and science passages today. I helped talk him through the first ones, and then I had him complete the others on his own. I wanted him to feel like he could do the passages on his own, which he can. Rowan has a great understanding of the science passages and interprets the charts/graphs well. He has a tougher time focusing on the reading passages. I'm having him read the passages first so that he gets a sense of the main idea, and then I'm having him go to the questions, looking back at the text for the answers. I think this is still the best approach for him because it will keep him engaged in the material. Rowan asked for a lot of homework, so I assigned him plenty to do in all four sections of the ACT.
