Blossom Package
About
This package is ideal for families and students who are ready for intense academic support. Blooming Buds Tutoring understand the importance of collaboration between classroom teachers, specialists, and families. If your child has an Individualized Education Plan (IEP), a 504 plan, or a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP), I will make sure to include those goals and strategies in my planning. The Blossom Package includes communication with your child's team, to ensure the lessons align with your child's academic needs and learning goals. This highly personalized approach assures that each session is customized to help your child progress to their learning goals!
It includes all of the great features of the Bloom package, while assuring that lessons are still game-based, fun, and engaging!

Session Structure
What’s Included
If your student has an IEP/504 plan, we will analyze the document and adjust our practices to adhere to the goals and strategies that are listed! We will also reach out to your child’s team (classroom teacher, interventionists, special education teacher), consistently, in order to make sure we are on the same page and using similar language and practices. This will foster consistency, which will make our sessions more clear and streamlined for your student. Even if your child does not have an IEP, we will still communicate with their support team, including you! Your child will also have access to supplemental activities to make sure learning does not stop when the session ends. And of course, your child will still experience the fun, engaging, game-based lessons we feature here at Blooming Buds Tutoring.
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.
