Dear Readers,
It is almost time for Parent-Teacher Conferences. I always have more questions that I think after I leave the Parent-Teacher conference. Here are some tips I use in order to have a successful conference:
Tips for parents when meeting with teachers
1. Be on time you will have probably 10-15 minutes with the teacher.
2. Bring questions – Make a list of questions to ask the teacher about classroom, homework, tests, projects.
3. Address any concerns about child's performance (bring examples of homework, tests, etc.
4. Ask to see examples of homework, classwork, tests that your child has completed. You will be able to see what your child needs help on.
5. Become an involved parent by volunteering at school. Students are more successful if the parent(s) are involved at school.
6. Ask the teacher how you can help your child better meet the learning objectives.
7. Thank the teacher for his/her dedication and hard work teaching your child.
