=Week of 8/26 to 8/30= Since this is the first week of school Mrs.Arrante, Ms.Arrot, and I are still getting to know the students. After ice breakers and other introduction worksheets Mrs.Arrante started teaching the order of operation unit. I mainly helped Mrs.Arrante pass out and collect papers considering we are both new to peer tutoring.

=Week of 9/2 to 9/6= There was no school Monday but we continued with the order of operations unit for the rest of the week. The students took notes while I organized various worksheets for the next couple of days. So far the class has been going by very smoothly and the students are eager to learn. The students are progressing and have a quiz on Tuesday 9/10. We are mostly reviewing for the quiz so not much is needed to be done.

=Week of 9/9 to 9/13= Tuesday is the quiz day so for the beginning of the week I have been going around and helping various students with any questions that they may have. I am becoming more comfortable in my role as a peer tutor and am beginning to help Mrs.Arrante more with the students.

=Week of 9/16 to 9/20= This week the students are learning a new unit. I have gone around and helped the students with any confusion that they may have and feel I am really helping them better understand what they need to accomplish. I have also hung a bunch of posters up for Mrs.Arrante and passed out and collected papers for her. The students have another quiz on Friday due to this unit being short.

=Week of 9/23 to 9/27= This week Mrs.Arrante gave me more projects. I cut out many puzzles for the students in the upcoming days and have organized more papers for her. The students are doing very well with their work and are progressing tremendously. =Week of 9/30 to 10/4= This week the student had an assembly on Monday and we reviewed with them for their upcoming test and did keystone practice on Tuesday. On Wednesday they had distrct assements so not much was needed to be done by me. Then on Friday they had a double period which mainly consisted of note taking. =Week of 10/7 to 10/11= The students have become more comfortable with me and have allowed me to help them even more. They constantly call me over when they need help. Its great to know that they trust me. This week they are doing 2 step equations which is a new topic and can be confusing at first. A lot of notetaking has occurred this week so I mainly monitored the class and helped the few kids who were confused.

=Week of 10/14 to 10/18= There was no school Monday but Tuesday the kids did keystone prep. I was able to share my knowledge with the students on how important the keystones are to them. They were respectful to my advice and throughout the week the students progressed in their studies. =Week of 10/28 to 11/1= This week Mrs.Arrante allowed me to grade papers for her classes. Grading papers made me realize how much remarkable teachers are because some of this work is impossible to read! I have helped pass out and collect various assignmetns and have helped the kids with anything they may have been confused with.

=Week of 11/11 to 11/15= This week we spent the majority of the time reviewing and practicing factoring. I have been really helping the students a lot lately and feel as though they respect me as a teachers assistant. = = =Week of 11/25 to 11/26= Mrs.Arrante had me doing projects for her all week. I have cut various pieces of scrap paper, made folders for students who needed them, hung posters, and graded multiple assignments. =Week of 12/9 to 12/13= No school Monday or Tuesday so Mrs.Arrante mainly gave the students busy work while I helped them with anything they needed. =Week of 1/2 to 1/3= This week I passed out papers at the beginning of each class and continued to simply help the students with their work. Friday was a snow day so we did not have class. =Week of 1/20 to 1/24= We have barley had any days due to the crazy snow week but for the day we were here, Mrs.Arrante tried to continue with her previous assignment and gave students worksheets to refresh their memories. I helped whoever was confused or needed further explanation. =Week of 1/27 to 1/31= The new marking period begins at the end of the week so Mrs.Arrante was just finishing up reviewing and I helped with whoever needed further explanation. After reviewing the students took their midterms. =Week of 2/24 to 2/28= Monday- Mrs.arrante taught a new unit on slope form. I helped any student who needed it. The students have shown more of an interest in their work and have been asking for my help more often. Tuesday- No class Wednesday- During the double period I graded a ton of papers for Mrs. Arrante after that I helped the students with understanding the new slope equation.
