I think this is an awesome idea, because parents and teachers should be on the same page about what types of websites children can use and time limits.]]> 2019-04-23 20:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353529501 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353531310 I love this announcement sent home to students because it is better than just telling students to bring in bottle caps, this letter gets parents involved and lets them know how long the event will be going on.]]> 2019-04-23 20:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353531310 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353532920 This is a classroom teacher's list of rules that is sent home to parents so that they can read over them with students, this also makes parents aware of what is expected from their children.]]> 2019-04-23 20:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353532920 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353538018 I like that this little parent-teacher conference reminder card is in English and Spanish, this ensures that parents who can only read Spanish will also get the memo! ]]> 2019-04-23 20:32:22 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/353538018 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354256466 I love this example of a student grade report because it includes so much information. It also provides back and forth correspondence between the teacher and parent because it has a place for teacher comments and a designated place for parent comments or concerns.]]> 2019-04-25 19:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354256466 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354260715 I love this weekly report, mainly because it is in English and Spanish so that parents from both cultures know exactly what it says and that it is an important document, but also because I like the idea of communicating with parents at least once a week about what is going on in class and how their children are progressing.]]> 2019-04-25 19:40:03 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354260715 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354263799 This app is a great way for students, parents, and teachers to all communicate. The teacher can make general announcements and post assignments and directly communicate with individual parents.]]> 2019-04-25 19:49:06 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354263799 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354265123 The is an example of a school announcing an upcoming Book Fair. I like that it tells what the money from the Book Fair will be use for!]]> 2019-04-25 19:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354265123 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354268172 I like this two-way communication form because it is designed specifically for students who have an Autism Spectrum Disorder, it has an area for teachers to write about how the students are doing and parents to write back.]]> 2019-04-25 20:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354268172 brittany_stephens https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354269227 I love this example of Classroom news, it tells what specials classes students have that week, what they are doing in each subject, and class reminders. It also has cute illustrations!]]> 2019-04-25 20:09:13 UTC https://padlet.com/brittany_stephens/p948al8qphlr/wish/354269227
