Bloom Package
About
This package is ideal for students who have an IEP or are ready for more consistent academic support, or for students who are ready to be challenged and enriched! It includes all of the features of the Little Buddy package, but also includes additional supplemental materials for independent practice. Blooming Buds will still utilize current available data provided by the family, as well as valid screening assessments to identify any gaps your child may have, and build a plan for success; we will also provide virtual and/or physical materials (such as practice pages, games, or printable books) for your child to practice independently.
Of course, this package will still include custom, game-based activities to keep your child engaged, and make learning fun!
In-Person Sessions* starting at $35/thirty minutes.
Virtual Sessions starting at $30/thirty minutes.
*In-Person availability depends on location!

Session Structure
Connect: I will ask Get - to- know you questions and play relationship building games.
Introduce/Review: I will Introduce new material/skill or review previously learned skills.
Model (I do): I demonstrate how to use a skill.
Guided Practice (We do): We practice the skill together.
Independent Practice (I do): The student practices the skill independently, and I provide feedback as needed.
Assessment: A short, informal quiz (physical or just verbal inquiry) to assess how much a student has grasped.
Closing: We will end with a quick game and review what we have learned.
This package includes all of the benefits of the Little Buddy package, with the added benefits of IEP/504 analysis and supplemental materials so learning does not stop at the end of the session!
If your child has an IEP (or will obtain one in the future), and they are in need of some extra support, then this is the place to start! Alternatively, if your child does not have a learning disability, but they are struggling to keep up or catch up with their peers, the consistency of this package will help to foster growth and build confidence!
What’s Included
All sessions start at 30 minutes, and that is the recommended length of time for K-6 students. However, we understand that some students may need more support, or that schedules may effect availability.

-
Progress is monitored each session by the tutor, and then the data and notes are compiled into a Progress Report that is sent out weekly via email. Progress monitoring may look like a short paper-pencil/virtual quiz, or a verbal discussion rubric.

Blooming Buds Tutoring does not use one set curriculum. However, our tutors are trained in the Ortan-Gillingham approach to phonics (great for early readers or those who struggle with Dyslexia). We also have access to the UFLI Foundations Phonics Curriculum, and the CKLA Curriculum(Core Knowledge Language Arts).
Blooming Buds Tutoring is not about the materials we use, it is about the practices and methods we employ. Blooming Buds Tutoring is resourceful. We are constantly learning more through current research to adapt our practices to fit the needs of our students. We use a variety of educational resources to compile what we need to support student growth.
