Yesterday I showed up to tutor Saja in Leslie’s class at 1:00.
After checking the empty classroom I found written on the board, Computer Lab.
I then met Leslie and asked if she needed any assistance with Saja today. She
then told me that they were working on the computers in order to complete a
speaking quiz. I had never seen a speaking quiz done this way. I was not to
give Saja answers so I sat at the other end of the room. After a few minutes I
figured, since I was in the computer lab I might as well knock out a few
computer assignments. After the speaking quiz we returned to the classroom and
started a new unit on food. Saja and I worked on what our favorite fruits and
vegetables were and our least favorite. I also encouraged her to use the third
person singular since Leslie was going around the class asking people
individually what their favorite partner’s likes and dislikes for vegetables. Overall I think Saja is slowly improving. She is becoming less afraid and falter in her speaking abilities when being put on the spot. The more interaction we share, the easier it is for Saja to not loose her train of thought.
