Student Led Conferences 11/3

Student-Led Conferences: The Details

Student-led conferences are the hip, new version of the boring old parent-teacher conference model. In a student-led conference, the student is in charge.

Your student-led conferences are this Friday, 11/3 from 7am until 1pm.

It goes like so: the student and parent arrive in class for the conference. They pick up a check list to go through together. The check list asks what types of behaviors the student demonstrates to achieve his or her own success in the class. Some of the questions are: Do you keep your notebook organized? Do you spend time each night on your homework or reading? Do you focus in class usually?

The student and parent get to reflect together on the responses to these yes or no questions. After the questions have been answered, you get to answer some short response questions ab out what changes you can make to be more successful in the class. Start thinking about it now so you can impress your parent or guardian with how prepared you are!

Together, you and your adult will make a plan for how you will be your best self in this class.

Finally, the teacher (me!) will stop by your table to check out your answers and hear about the plan for success you’re making. There will be a tear off portion on the checklist that your parent will complete and share with me.

And we all live happily ever after!

During the student-led conference, you MUST have your IAN with you with this assignment completed inside. This will show off just how prepared and successful you’re able to be in this class and will totally dazzle your adult.

Can’t wait, guys!!!! xoxoxoxo emojis hearts stars horseshoes clovers and blue moons
