Richard had a good session. Started off with conversational practice with a peer. He was working on TH during this conversation. Next Richard was asked to read a list of 10 words that had multiple meanings and then match the word to two definitions. This was difficult. Richard was not thrilled to work on his reading but he did it! This helped him when it came time to match the words to their meanings. Will continue this exercise during sessions tomorrow.

Chris was highly motivated once again this morning. Sharing ideas for storylines within his upcoming video productions and comic books continues to provide a strong springboard for conversational reciprocity, linguistic organization and narrative development. Chris was eager to share a multitude of ideas related to multiple "projects." Attention was strong this session, and the provision of familiar scaffolding strategies facilitated increased cohesiveness and organization. Speaker -speaker overlap was noted to be frequent this session, however, allowance for repair was noted 80% of the time. Chris was noted to utilize both question and comment within conversation this morning. A notable increase in use of contingent questions was observed. Chris demonstrated strong use of comparisons, as well as use of inferences within narrative generation. Strong session today.
The session commenced this morning with Chris rapidly posing multiple questions, and seeking feedback regarding one of his upcoming video productions. Familiar scaffolding supports were provided and Chris successfully utilized topic transition phrases and cohesive ties for the duration of the session. Acknowledgement of "requests for clarification" when details within the specific topic were not "shared knowledge" was noted. However, cues and supports to assist with clarification, and vocabulary specificity were needed. Attentional shifting was noted today, and self awareness was strong, as Chris shared that "my head is jumpy today." Strong session overall as Chris continues to make solid gains.
