Tutoring Buddies HT Sheet

This document contains observations, interpretations, and hypotheses about two first grade students, Jayden and Kinley, from four hypothesis-testing sessions between September 18th and October 9th. The teachers observed that both students struggled with one-to-one word correspondence, matching voice to print, and using context clues. They hypothesized that the students may lack confidence and fluency. The teachers decided to use easy readers with sight words and dots under words to build these skills and help the students monitor their own reading.
