Excellent session

You did well by giving Robert time to solve problems on his own and encouraging the new student, Yassin, to participate as soon as he joined. To Improve: Since you have a digital whiteboard or presentation, try using the "I Do, We Do, You Do" method. Model one hard conversion (like the yard-to-mile problem), do a medium one together by letting Robert tell you the next step, and then have him do the final one solo. This builds his confidence before the timer starts.

Very good.

Your explanation of the yard-to-mile square conversion was top-tier. Most students forget to square the conversion factor when dealing with area, and you caught that potential pitfall perfectly. Your post-assessment breakdown of the "decreasing X by what percent" question was also excellent, you identified the specific part that tripped Robert up. To Improve: For the square conversion problem, a quick sketch can prevent confusion. If you draw a square that is 1 mile by 1 mile, and then label it as 1,760 yards by 1,760 yards, the student can literally see why we multiply the numbers.
