SAT prep. Discussed the math and reading homework that the student completed. She did especially well in math, missing only one question. In reading, she missed only one of the vocab questions and a handful of reading questions, mainly on the more difficult passage comparisons. We spoke about the strategies for the reading section, then focused on the essay. We looked at sample essays from the book, and picked one essay topic to brainstorm for and then complete for homework.
