Corbin Ryan: Tutoring Session #13 with Christian

            For tutoring Session #13 with Christian, the plan went as:

1.     Have C write out the alphabet

2.     Copy the alphabet, lower and upper-case 

3.     Match upper and lower-case letters to their counter-parts in chalk on the driveway

4.     Verbally instruct C to draw out different shapes and objects in different colors to test comprehension skills (ex., “draw me a red TV/a yellow cat/a blue house)

5.     Finish up by reading a couple books

Christian had no issue with any of the activities/exercises. He perfectly matched all the upper and lower-case letters, so he definitely recognizes, or rather, comprehends the letters’ counter-parts. The next step, which I will attempt in the next lesson, is to see how he does in producing the different sets of the alphabet.

I had him draw different things of different colors since I realized he had trouble producing the names of colors during our last session, even for his favorite color “yellow.” He understood what he needed to do when I asked him to draw x thing with y color, so it is clear that he is  receptive to those words.

To finish the lesson as we usually do, we read a couple books I checked out from the library. He seems to favor Curious George.
