Recent Ceramics Tutoring Session Notes
Worked with student on the online assignments. He seems to have developed a very good sense of directional vectors (which ones to use where) as well as a good grasp on the fundamental equations of kinematics.
Some points of complication included remembering to switch back to total velocity opposed to the x or y component. In addition, Chris seems to like to use Pythagoras' Theorem to find a complimenting velocity/vector value. While this may be easily doable now, it's good to get into the habit of using the equations Vx = Vcos(theta) and Vy = Vsin(theta) for the future.
We reviewed troublesome problems in her practice exercises from last session. We worked together on practice exercises in reading comprehension and ratios/proportions. Assignment: 1)Work on Vocab/Roots Memorization 2)ETS practice test #3 3)Continue with practice exercises
Introductory meeting, met family and children, gave the kids some Spanish worksheets to start getting familiar with the basics. Talked about what we wanted them to learn, the different children's learning styles, and their foreign language background.
Advised the student on her Law of Definite Composition lab and extra credit worksheet. Reviewed compounds and taught molar ratios. We also reviewed the student's past tests to correct errors made and for extra practice with the information.
The student and I reviewed what we covered from Wednesday. He did not need much help with the problems when he was working on them. For this portion of the test he should do very well. On Sunday we will be meeting again to cover the other sections that will be on the test.
The student and I reviewed for her chemistry final - we talked about significant figures, calculations with sig figs (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), balancing chemical equations, classifying equations, and physical and chemical changes.
