I had my last tutoring session with PJ at CIES. For this session, I had PJ read a story from his reading textbook called "A Drop of Water". To practice his listening skills as well as his reading skill, we switched off reading every other page. This story was all about how water can change from a solid to a liquid to a gas. After we would read a page, I would have PJ share his thoughts of the subject and what changes in water's state he had observed in his everyday life. When a more complicated concept was mentioned, such how water changes states or how clouds form, I would draw a visual representation on the white board. The story talked about snow and we talked about why it snows in some places but it doesn't in Tallahassee. Neither PJ nor I have never really seen snow, so we talked about how cold it needs to be for snow to form and maintain its shape.
