I was blessed with a reading buddy that sings almost as well as he reads. This semester, my field experience consisted of tutoring sessions with an individual third grader. My partner was Jayden, a blonde hair and blue eyed fellow. I set up lesson plans for twice a week for seven weeks. I got to know my reading buddy and what makes him special. While experiencing sessions with Jayden I learned what he is good at when it come to reading and writing.

His beautiful book proved this as correct because it was definitely on the fictional side. As I already knew Jayden enjoys topics of animals, his parents put as an example: sharks.
