What are some reading and writing tips for tutoring?

I am in 7th grade and i am tutoring a sixth grader in Reading and Writing! He tends to slack off and not pay attention, he also needs constant help on the reading/writing activity’s! Since we are in 3rd quarter now, were starting new stuff in reading/writing! What are some activity’s should i do to help this kid!? Any tips?

Make the subject matter interesting, and have it fun. Very hard to give specifics, as I don’t know his interests or his levels but… Writing example: You could start a story with a few sentences, and then give him the paper where he would write no less than 3, but no more than 5 sentences, andf then he would give the paper back to you (This could be something He could do between tutring sessions if he takes too long.) Reading example: You could read a dialogue/script of a cool movie that is somewhat current, so you guys can each take turns. This way you could model for him and show him how much fun it is.

Reading Writing & Arithmetic $2.82 Like the album’s title, this music is about the basics. This seminal release from 1990 rerouted pop music for several years, and for the better. This simple guitar/bass/drum/vocal affair cut like a searchlight through the fog of tortuously overproduced music of the time, as The Sundays proved that more is often merely more. Harriet Wheeler’s lilting, swooningly sweet voice is clearly the strong dr…

Blind $2.47 For bands like the Sundays that put out albums very infrequently (only three in eight years), passing fads cannot exert undue influence; consistency is the key to staying power. Thank God the Sundays never went grunge. On this, their second album, the forthright and spare power of their debut has ceded somewhat to lusher production values and more complex arrangements, but the good news is that th…
