RE: Reports and Conferences | | | | | Bonjour!!
As part of the reporting process for students in Kindergarten and Grades 1 to 5, you will receive your child’s Kindergarten Communication of Learning: Initial Observations (KCoL) or Progress Report Card electronically on Friday, November 5, 2021 . These reports will be emailed to students’ [pdsb.net](pdsb.net) account. The Board-wide parent conference dates for the elementary panel are on the evening of Thursday, November 11, 2021 and on the morning/afternoon of Friday, November 12, 2021.
Reporting for our Full Day Kindergarten students will involve an online conference where our Kindergarten Teaching Teams will be sharing their students’ Kindergarten Communication of Learning: Initial Observations for our Year 1 and Year 2 students. Your child’s teacher will reach out to you to schedule a virtual conference with you.
The purpose of the parent-student-teacher conference is to discuss the progress the student has made thus far, and to set goals for future success. And as such, the student is a very important part of this meeting. These conferences usually range in time from 15 to 20 minutes. This academic year, conferences will be held virtually on your child’s learning platform-Google Classroom or Brightspace or via telephone if necessary. Your child’s teacher will reach out to you to schedule a virtual conference with you.
For students learning in-person at Carberry PS, the conferences will be held virtually on either November 11 or November 12, 2021. Please do not come to the school. If you are unable to attend on your scheduled date and time please inform your child’s teacher right away. To support our families with language needs, please | | | | | connect with your child’s teacher to arrange for an Interpreter or you may wish to have someone you know present at the conference with you to translate for you.
It is important to prepare for the conference to make the best use of that limited time. Should you require more time please communicate that with your child’s teacher.
Below are some helpful tips for you to make the most of your parent-student-teacher conference:
1. PREPARE
Read your child’s Progress Report Card or KCoL. Make notes about your questions and concerns. If you require an Interpreter or are able to have one with you, please share your questions with him/her prior to the conference. Talk to your child about the report and ask “What do you want to ask the teacher?”. Make a list of the questions.
2. ASK QUESTIONS
Arrive online on time with your child and the list of questions. During the conference the teacher(s) will review your child’s Progress Report Card or KCoL and may show you samples of your child’s work. This is a good time for your child to share his/her thoughts about the teaching and learning happening in the classroom. You may at any time ask questions that are relevant to your child’s learning such as:
What does my child do well?
What skills does he or she still need to develop?
If my child nee
