Have students practice going over their leadership notebook to help boost their confidence! :)

Allow students time to fill out reflections on academics and how they are feeling about school in general. This will give some great talking points during conferences

# data[].attributes.body
We follow a learning target agenda of what students will share with their families. This always helps them stay organized and identify the next step.

# data[].attributes.body
In the past we have has class meetings to vote on different categories we want to talk about in the conferences such as: how we feel emotionally, what we contribute to the the class community, where we rock in class and what we need to grow at.

Students share their strengths and weaknesses and select a goal to share with their families.

In the past my school had something similar to the student led agenda

One helpful support that you can provide to students is a posted SLC agenda that helps to remind them of the flow of their conference. This is used in conjunction with their personal checklist.  (See Harrell's post)
Additionally, having students rehearse how they will conduct their conference is very benficial.

One hack I would advise using before and during SL conferences is a checklist of all items the students are going to share with their families. This helps students stay focused on what to share, and prevents them from showing EVERYTHING, which we do not have time for at this event.

On our student check list, there is space for the family's reflection at the end of the conference.

Having students share their success in class and the areas they need to grow and the WHY behind it. Students reasons may be different and show another side to situations and holds them responsible

I have students practice going over their Leadership Binder with a buddy or someone they are comfortable , maybe a staff.

I give my students the spotlight. As the teacher I step back and provide students with opportunities to talk about their learning and reflect on their growth and goals.
I let my students do the talking and provide a report card and/or answer any additional questions at the end.

We have learning targets that set up what the structure of our Leadership Binders in Academics and SEL, TLIM and what it will look like.

I want my students to set goals and share their goals with the family and myself.

I would like to use the leadership binder questions to help my students prepare for their student-led conference. This will also help identify areas that need to be revisited or updated in our leadership binders.

Years ago we created this document that keeps the flow of the Student Led Conferences flowing nicely.

# data[].attributes.body
The structure of the SL conference is that the student welcomes their family, shares their work using their checklist and Leadership Binder, invites the teacher to join them for any questions or discussion, the parents complete a brief reflection, and the child thanks their family for joining them at school.
Before sharing their work, students share a self-evaluation about their study habits and behavior. The student and teacher complete the form ahead of time, to be shared by the student during the conference.

Here is one example that I have saved from a long time ago.

# data[].attributes.body
One structure that is helpful and engages both the student and the parent in a math pairs check.  It is based on the Kagan Pairs Check structure.  It is set up to showcase one of the math learning targets from the trimester.  Both student and parent must complete the task of one problem.
Advice: Keep it very simple.

Each of my students has a Leadership folder that they keep updated as they track their progress. Students share the folders with parents and celebrate together the kids' progress.
The students also have there progress posted on the walls, that helps them to have their target right there and be reminded of the targets they need to focused on.

Students practice the agenda before  conference and they are the ones guiding  parents through the whole process.

Our students are provided with an agenda and a checklist to support them in leading their conference. ( After seeing the Lotus Diagram method, we would like to modify our agenda.)

# data[].attributes.body
We provide the students with an agenda to follow. In order to assist my students and families with reading the steps, I would like to incorporate the Lotus type of agenda with fewer words and pictures/symbols.

What I found to be useful was the form that has Parent Questions that they can ask their child during their chid's Student Led Conference.

# data[].attributes.headline
I will try to have students answer the questions parents may have about their progress.

Students practice sharing their progress with their accountability partner in order to develop their conference confidence. The teacher does not participate until the very end.

# data[].attributes.body
We release more ownership to our students by having the student share their learning and growth and discuss their goals with their family. The teacher does not join the conversation until the end of the conference, when the report card is given to the family and any questions or discussion takes place.

Having parents fill out a questionnaire on their child's Student Led Conference and later with more time develop a Student Led Conference Rubric that parents can use.

# data[].attributes.body
I will provide my parents with a list of possible questions that they can ask their child to facilitate a productive conversation around a student's progress and growth.

I would like to implement a bank of portfolio questions that students and their accountability partners can practice answering in order to be ready for SL conferences or a Leadership Binder Showcase event with visitors.
