Topic: The letter 'X'
For our eleventh tutoring session my tutee and I discussed the letter 'X'. For the letter 'X' she decided to cut out the letter 'X' and draw a xylophone on it and then color it in. I think she was confused because words that start with the letter 'X' have almost a 'zzz' sound which can be off-putting. We went over nouns, verbs, and adjectives that started with the letter 'X' and because there are not that many words in the English language that start with the letter 'X', we then went over words that end in the letter 'X'. After that we looked at pictures on Google of the words we have gone over. For such a difficult letter, I think we did a good job. We had some time left at the end of class so I let her watch a Schoolhouse Rock! video on American expansion. She enjoyed it and I explained to her what 'history" is.
