English concept taught by Janille
Janille guided a learner from Sugar Land in analyzing the story of Helen Keller to identify story elements, with the learner's mother assisting during the lesson. The individual worked on identifying the characters, setting, problem, solution, theme, and plot of the story. Janille assigned homework where the learner will analyze a book they have read and identify the same story elements; they also discussed rescheduling their next lesson.
