Tutoring Plan: Number Recognition

Objective: When presented 10 flash cards (1-10) one at a time, the student will
		name each numeral with 90% accuracy.

Activity:
	1) Have the student sit opposite of tutor at a desk or table with
		surface cleared of any objects.

	2) Show the student one flash card at a time.

	3)  a) Say:  "What number is this?  Record on chart "+" if the student responds 
		correctly, "-" if the student does not respond correctly.

	    b) If the student does not respond correctly, say:  "This is number ___.  
		Trace ___.  (Be sure student follows arrow.)  As the student traces the 
		number, say the name of the number.

		Then repeat 3(a) for that number.

	4) Repeat step 3 for each card, marking the response on the graph.  		

	Work for 10 minutes.


Throughout the lesson offer support and encouragement:   "Good job!",   
"You're doing very well!",  or  "I really like the way you're working!" 
Do not, however, use any responses that show if the student is giving a correct response: "You're right!", "That's correct!"


Materials: 3x5 textured flash cards for numbers 1-10 with direction arrows for 
		tracing numbers.
