Session Date
Lesson Topic
Stars; reading and interpreting star charts
Lesson Outline
I began by quizzing Jared on eclipses (his homework for the previous day had been to study the mechanics of eclipses). Jared appears to be very interested in eclipses, and considering a partial eclipse was scheduled for the early evening of Thursday, I thought it would be a good opportunity to examine the topic closely. We then moved onto star charts, and discussed the different types of objects represented in star charts. I also quizzed Jared on his understanding of the different objects.
Assignment
Study the star chart; take the binoculars and look at the night sky first by naked eye, then with the binoculars. Make a note of what you see.

Lesson Comments
I quizzed Jared - verbally - during this lesson twice, and he really seems to retain information from previous lessons very well. I will graduate soon to presenting him with more written assignments/quizzes.
