Conferencing and Reporting is full of practical ways for teachers to involve students in the assessment process by having students collect evidence of learning – proof – and having students communicate that proof with others. Have you ever thought there must be a better way to communicate to parents? There is! In this best-selling book, the authors have selected the top tenbest ways to have students reflecting on their learning, collecting evidence of learning, sharing that evidence with others and asking for specific feedback to support further learning. This book includes detailed directions and blackline masters so teachers can begin immediately. It is often said that a village is needed to raise a child. Teachers know a team is needed if a child is going to learn and achieve. This book not only helps students learn more, it also helps parents and others come to understand what is being learned and how to best support students to learn more. In Chapter 2 the authors provide different ways for students to take part in end-of-term conferences and demonstrate their own learning. Processes and suggestions are given for Student-Teacher and Student-Parent-Teacher Conferences, as well as Student-Parent-Teacher Conferences for students with special needs. These conferencing formats OR structures are powerful companions to standards-based report cards.
