Lesson Comments
Nicholas did better today than usual. He focused and did all the work, even though he still had to lie on the floor part of the time.
Dillon began the session by completing a quick homework assignment. I read the next chapter of his independent reading book to him, and he then chose a question to answer from the teacher's list. Next, he read a Newsela article about the coming flu season. Before reading he turned the bold faced headings into questions and then read and answered the question. This helped to reinforce the practice of self-monitoring for comprehension. He did a great job! Then, he answered the comprehension questions that went along with the article. He answered them all correctly and used his test taking strategies as he responded to the questions.He did a really fine job today and was very focused.

Lesson Comments
Xavier was very pleasant today. He readily worked on spelling when I allowed him to play a game between spelling and math. He likes to play a game while I read to him, but he understands what I am reading.
