Tomas Cordero TS1, P.J. Chang

This Monday was my first session with P.J. He seemed excited to learn and inquisitive. I got to know him a little better by asking him about his hobbies, how his classes are, and how the change from elementary school to middle school was for him. After we broke the ice a bit, we opened the Collections grammar book and worked on some new vocab words. I asked him to figure out the word using context clues, and then we looked up the actual definitions. We then reviewed his vocab list for his advanced classes placement, and went over different ways to begin a persuasive essay.
