We share the open house slides with parents to access throughout the year. ttramontano https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320927661 MIF parent letter]]> 2022-09-30 11:54:09 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320927661 A few pieces of corrected math HW are sent home each week. Any drafts of writing pieces and published pieces are kept at school and shared at conferences. Published pieces are sent home at the end of the year. We keep MiF assessments and share those at conferences. Independent reading book is sent home daily and students keep a reading log that goes home in the beginning of the year. Later in the year, students complete 2 reader responses a week, which are corrected and sent home. https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320927692 2022-09-30 11:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320927692 "No news is good news" ttramontano https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320929093 I feel in previous years we were encouraged to reach out to parents if you think a student is going to be receiving a 2 or S as a grade on report card. ]]> 2022-09-30 11:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320929093 Teachers on our team will always reach out prior to conferences if there is any issue that needs to be addressed with regard to a student's academics, behavior, etc. I find that we all communicate with parents prior to the conferences at least a few times over the phone, email, or in person, so typically some observations may be shared overall. But, in truth, "no new is good news" is often the case by 4th grade. https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320930159 2022-09-30 11:56:25 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320930159 We send weekly/monthly email updates. The HW is always a reflection of what we are doing in class. We have created HW assignments for their at-home reading to mirror the work they are doing in class-with a class example and a note at the top stating the goal for the reader. lvetti https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320930269 Writing is shared mostly at conferences and described in emails. 
Math has the chapter letter, and the HW. We share the math tests with families but hold on to it (ask them to send it back)]]> 2022-09-30 11:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2320930269 We send home MiF independent practice, corrected homework. We do not send home any assessments. https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2321033937 2022-09-30 13:16:15 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2321033937 Our team does a mix of monthly newsletters, website updates, and emails sharing information such as this. Some of us also send home take-home folders with hard copies (Math in Focus letters, etc.). https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335274143 2022-10-11 13:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335274143 We send home varying amounts of corrected math homework, but not the assessments. Final writing drafts are usually published digitally and shared at conferences. https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335284060 2022-10-11 13:32:01 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335284060 We reach out to parents via email or phone when there are any concerns (academic or social). The work we send home also gives them a sense of how their child is doing prior to the first progress report. https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335289398 2022-10-11 13:34:33 UTC https://padlet.com/darienps/b12qstid0nizhlk2/wish/2335289398
