summer reading tutoring #2

Last Tuesday was SJ's reading tutoring session with Mrs. Banks.  She said SJ did a very nice job.  They continued on with The Island: Survival book.  She said they read two more chapters and answered some comprehension questions about the chapters.  She said SJ was glad that they were down to only one girl character.  She said they are not definitely dead, but they can't be found on the island. 

After they finished their chapters, SJ did a Look and Find sheet.  He had to find 10 items in the worksheet.  It was called "The Sweet Summer Season".  She said that SJ found the items easily.  See the attached worksheet and images that he had to find.
 

 
The last thing they did was play the game Doodle Dice.  In the game, you need to roll the dice to make a doodle.  Mrs. Banks said that SJ was very frustrated at first.  He didn't understand that you can choose to hold some of the dice (like in Yahtzee) in order to make one.  Once he understood how the game worked, she said he started to enjoy the game. That seemed like a fun game, so maybe I will have to pick it up. 
 
 
I am glad that SJ worked well for her.  He seems to not mind going to her house.  I thought that was going to be a problem, but I was glad that I was wrong about that.
