Patrick completed his assignments on the activity he started yesterday in his V/V book entitled, Ice Slide. He did very well and demonstrated a full understanding of the story. He was able to identify the main idea with little support and was able to recall the vocabulary words from the previous day. He responded accurately to the higher order thinking questions, as well. Patrick was briefly introduced to the vocabulary words in his next story about the Emu bird. He will continue with this story during his next class. It is both fun and rewarding to work with Patrick.

Patrick did a great job today in his new typing program. He completed 3 modules in Lesson 1. These modules consisted of typing letters and words ending in -ed. His accuracy was between 89-97% in all three modules. In LB, Patrick worked on a story about a penguin. He learned new vocabulary and created word summaries and picture summaries and answered questions which demonstrated his comprehension. Patrick completed three activities in Fast ForWord. Today we slowed down and practiced making the sounds with our mouths to ensure that Patrick understands the sounds that are being made. He did a great job and his effort today was extremely good!
