We discussed Microsoft Office for a while but Mercer was highly motivated to play chess, so we did that for a while. I used the opportunity to build logic concepts which will be useful across functions on computer skills later.

Lesson Comments
Hank and his brother like to tease each other and use inappropriate language. As with Ben, I am working to eliminate this when using email or other computer software going forward. That said, Hank is learning and has an intuitive sense of how to make things work on the computer.

Lesson Comments
Mercer was cooperative and engaged but often acts irritable during discussion. He appears to be defensive and sometimes rude in his responses. I am working to get him to recognize this himself, so he can see that he needs to adjust (without criticizing or punishing him). He shows good promise and learns quickly.
