We began the session by going over Trenton's homework for mathematics which was understanding time on an analog clock. He had a bit of difficulty with this task when the hour hand was close to the next hour. We discussed some strategies - like lining up a straight edge to the number and if the hand wasn't there that meant it was the previous hour. He was able to count by five's to determine the minutes. He needs more practice to be more confident in this skill.
Next, he read an informational text about the "Arctic Fox". As he read he highlighted the supporting details. He was able to answer the comprehension questions about this text. He was very careful about restating the question in the answer when answering text dependent questions. He was also able to cite evidence from the text for his answers. He then did a fluency check on a passage about the school bus. He orally answered questions to determine comprehension. He did a great job today and is eager to do well.
