I'm were here to talk today about the end of the marking period and parent-teacher conferences so some tips to lay some of this anxiety before the conference and reflecting on their report card grades number one reflect on your own anxiety as a parent caregiver or Guardian take stock of how you're feeling about your child's progress are you feeling frustrated either with your child or with the school experiencing feelings of finger that's okay but just be very aware of what the root of that is so that when you go in and go to talk to your child raible to have a really constructive conversation number to ask your child's perspective find out what they think is going really well one question I would suggest is what do you think your teacher might say some of your strengths are what do you think your teacher might say you can improve upon this is a good opportunity to hear their side and their prospective tip number 3 for your child input on questions concerns they have for the teacher or teachers so you'll be writing a list that you're going to take with you to the conference you want to make sure that that includes questions that your child has tip number for sure your pride let your kid know what are there an elementary school student or middle school or high school student let him know what you see are their strength number 5 remind and remember this is for both you and your child you're all on the same team so let them know that when you go to talk to the teacher you're really going to exchange information to find out how they're doing from the teacher's perspective and for you to Advocate on behalf of your child tip number 6 review your child's work before you attend the conference so take a look at samples that you have on whether their tests or projects take a look at them and if you have questions about how they were graded or you're concerned about the amount of effort that went into it on your child's part take a look and take those questions in to the teacher and the conference so tip number 7 I've already said it but make a list of questions number 8 make a list of your child's strengths challenges and needs for so certainly you know your kids better than anybody else so list those drinks also if there any relevant changes in your home life and their home life and your sibling has arrived or maybe there's recent divorce or a death in the family these are things you if you feel comfortable sharing you may want to share to the number 9 reflect on your own involvement so take some time before you go and think about I am I doing too much for my child doing too little so just taking stock of your own involvement and then as you go to the parent-teacher conference you could talk more about how can we continue to support my child most effectively together as a team
