Face-to-face individual session with M.A. 03/14/2016 from 4pm-7pm at ForKids on 4200 Colley Ave. Interaction was made during Hot Meals & Homework tutoring session.
II. Purpose Statement
The purpose of this assessment is to evaluate if M.A. has been working on her math skills, as she is currently failing. Her last report card she received a C, and her grades have been dropping.

I feel that way because whenever we converse, she smiles and is able to carry a conversation. She also talks to some of the other students in the center sometimes without any problem. I also make sure to ask how she’s doing when she comes to the center (even when she is working with another volunteer,) so that she knows she could trust me, and that I enjoy her company. I’m making sure to build a relationship with her, because she has been through a lot, and needs someone who could support her through her tough
