During today's session we worked on reading comprehension by studying a passage and addressing "main idea" and evidence comprehension questions. To assist Colson I read the passage(sports related) aloud and pointed out how to use the passage's footnotes to locate vocabulary definitions . Colson then began to answer the comprehension questions. Where he encountered difficulty ,I provided instruction on how to carefully read the questions, which is just as critical as a close reading of the passage. We will complete the exercise in tomorrow's enrichment class after Colson has the opportunity to study the questions more closely.
Kaitlin and I discussed the summer. I told Kaitlin about some different books we could choose from for 9th grade reading. She chose a composition book to use for our class. We discussed in general the things we will do this year.
