I have this mini-white board I carry around all week for tutoring because it gives me a chance to show math without writing on their papers or to have them do a quick drill. One of the kids I;m working with is VERY bright, but like a lot of students, the synthesis of all kinds of operations required in Algebra I has felt like a big step up. She doesn't have complete confidence in what to do with variables, sometimes when she makes small calculation errors it's then hard for her to find her mistake amidst a long, multi-step problem, and she has some hesitation when it comes to operations with negative numbers. So, this was our warm up drill last week when we met for our first "official" tutoring session.
