Dylan -
Dylan loves to read. He read many book series including Wings of Fire, FableHaven, Dragon Watch, The Hobbit, Eye of the World just to name a few. His favorite work is reading, history, math and outschool. This year we worked a lot on multiplication, decimals/fractions, and division and he had an Outschool math tutor. Focus, neatness, and organization were big areas we put a lot of attention towards in writing and math. We focused on concepts, correcting the work, and reviewing it later to see huge improvements in these areas for math and writing. He learned how to play the Ukulele, took Latin and computer coding lessons, got PADI scuba certified, learned archery, and collaborated through online game classes for teamwork. He wants to be a day trader and would choose to work on history, animals, science, engineering and computers if he could choose. He took a class on discovering his learning style and a class on managing time. These two classes gave us tips to help support his focus, hard work, and learning style as a kinetic learner. His goals are to be able to do a double side back flip and be better at multiplication, division being neat and organized in his math. He feels that writing and math are hard for him, he needs help and wants to improve both of them, especially long division. He has a big interest in learning history and how things work. Areas to continue to improve for him are his neatness in writing and math, writing structured paragraphs and details, rounding large place value digits, more advanced multiplication and division, fractions, decimals, multi step word problems, and maps.
