Default 3 hr. private lesson with a 10 year old boy!

Hi all,

I have a 10 yr old student whose mother wants 3 hour classes for him once a week. It's his summer vacation too; however, she says he's very academic so it's not a problem for him to continue this on his time off.

He goes to a bilingual English/Spanish school and apparently has a really good level. She says she wants the 3 hours to be like his classes in school. She wants me to teach him literature, writing, grammar, etc.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could make this academic, fun and above all, make it last effectively for 3 hours?!?!? I've thought about creative writing activities, working with comics, reading comprehension exercises, etc. but I doubt all of that would take up 3 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,
Leena
