If you did not receive your conference scheduling preference form on Friday you'll be receiving this Tuesday in your child's homework folder. PLEASE RETURN THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! :) Thanks!
Please read the following:
Student led conferences are a very powerful way to organize a parent/teacher conference. These conferences involve the students in the planning and execution of the conference. I have used this format for the past three years with excellent results! Students will be able to present and answer questions about their classroom work. They will also be able to discuss their performance of the Zoo Rules. Parents that were at first reluctant about this format in the past were surprised by how much more meaningful these conferences turned out to be for both parents and child. If a parent feels that an adults-only conference is needed, I am willing to set up a second phone or in-person conference to answer any questions or concerns.
I have found this format to be easy for all parties, yet the most authentic when it comes to positive changes occurring as a result of a conference. Over the next few weeks I will be working with the children to prepare for these conferences. Please be sure to pick a conference time that will work for both your schedule and your child's schedule. Next, plan on bringing your son or daughter to his or her parent/teacher conference. As previously stated, I am available for a meeting or discussion outside of the regular conference time if you feel it is needed. Thanks for your time; I am looking forward to these conferences to showcase your child’s outstanding work!
