The goal of this session was to continue tutoring the students using the Oral Math Facts program. P showed much more enthusiasm during this session although she insisted on the worksheets and tests to be administered orally. She worked quickly and got through a considerable number of sessions. N started off well, but as the session continued and new material was introduced, his progress slowed considerably and he was unable to complete more than one page. The classroom was as distracting as usual to the students. To help the students learn, they were asked problems orally and verbally corrected when they answered a problem incorrectly. None of the aspects of multiculturalism seemed particularly relevant to today’s session.
