As an educator and a parent myself, conferences can lead to a perspective where I can understand both positions. Parents want their children to feel safe, be happy and learn at school. I know EVERY parent wants this. That is why it is SO important that we make them feel welcome and part of the team when making decisions. Parent/teacher/student conferences is a great time to build relationships with parents. A great question to ask yourself is what do I want from my child's teacher? How would I want to be included? If my child was being disruptive or struggling in class how would I like to be approached?
Have you planned to have your students lead part of the parent/teacher conference? This can easily be done by using the RIT goals students have set for themselves.
Writing prompt should be finished. We will be grading it on November 14th at our grade level meeting from 3:15-4:45 in the staff room. If you have already graded (with 2 readers) your papers and entered grades in academic conference worksheet you will not need to meet in the staff room to grade papers on November 14th. A great day to grade your writing papers would be Nov. 3rd so it frees up your time on Nov. 14th from 3:15-4:45.
Please welcome our new nurse. She will be sharing her time here at SV with kit:
