Cabo was guided through a review of the PERT Math information that has been presented to him so far. He then worked on and completed his Chemistry homework.
Hank told me about his spring break. He was upset about how his hockey tournament had ended.
He was hesitant to write. He drew me a diagram of hockey players positions and responsibilities.
We checked on the lizard.
We went outside. He agreed to write a Thank You note in exchange for getting to run some football routes.
Hank then wrote a Thank You note to Judie and delivered it by "air mail."
He was excited for Judie to read his note.

Lesson Comments
I would like to move into some other areas with Hank. He does not curretnly seem interested in Spanish, but we could do Math work while playing street hockey, or work on visual communication methods (like diagrams) while discussing his hockey drills.
There are many fun and beneficial ways to help him grow.

Lesson Comments
Cabo continues to do well during our Spanish sessions.
However, he has been distracted during our Study Sessions as of late. I don’t want to push him too hard too fast, but if we continue on this path, we will have to pivot strategies.
I presented two articles to Cabo. They both discuss the Million Dollar Homepage.
We started a conversation about the articles that will be finished on another day.
We also started a conversation about next year’s class options. I introduced the idea of taking the PERT to Cabo as a preparatory step and decision making aid in the process of possibly dual enrolling.
He was receptive to the idea. We will delve deeper into this subject after the break.

Lesson Comments
Cabo does not get visible excited about many school topics, but he was intrigued by the idea of dual enrolling.
It may be appropriate to invite a college counselor in during one of our sessions to discuss some of these topics in greater detail with Cabo.
