I met PJ for his seventh tutoring session and had prepared for him to read a few short stories from his reading textbook. The first story we read was about all of the inventions that came about as a result of space travel and research. The story named how many of the things we rely on everyday such as x-ray machines, sneakers, and headsets were originally designed for astronauts in space. After we finished the story, I gave PJ two minutes to write down as many examples of items that resulted from space exploration. We then read another story about a boy who shrinks his classroom to be taller than everyone else. After every few paragraphs, I would ask PJ comprehension question and ask him to predict what would happen next. I also had him use the pictures to describe more about what was going on in the story.
