Attending students were grouped into two breakout rooms, each with at least two advisors. The Ponddy Reader application was utilized as the educational tool through which tutors taught students. The various classes are dedicated to working at their students skill levels, thus every student is learning at a speed comfortable for them. In this class, teachers continued their read-throughs and presentations about “Journey to the West”. Students took turns reading each paragraph, with the tutors assisting them with pronunciation and understanding of the text. Tutors also prepared short vocabulary word presentations and quick videos and games (utilizing YouTube, Google Slides and Quizizz) to promote student engagement.
The lesson breakout rooms lasted one hour and were followed by a short discussion and conclusion section.
The following students volunteered in today’s tutoring program: Alan Huang (1 hour), Jasmine Chen (1 hour), Greene Xue (1 hour) from the Syosset branch, and Matthew Yang (1 hour), Elise Zhu (1 hour), Loretta Liu (1 hour) are members of the Manhasset branch.
