On Saturday I tutored PJ at his house. He needed to finish a book about bridges for an Accelerated Reading (AR) test. The book was long, but easy to understand. There was a lot of new vocabulary to discuss though. It took him about 30 minutes to finish reading the book. I asked him questions to check his comprehension along the way. I don't think he really enjoyed the book, it was a little boring, but I think he understood it well and will pass the AR test. Next we went over the vocabulary list sent home by his teacher. There were some sentences using the vocabulary, the student was asked to determine if the sentences were true or false and correct them if they were false. At first he had some difficulty understanding the exercise, but when we went over the words again and I explained the objective in different terms he completed the worksheet quickly.
