https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w What are thoughts? What would like to implement? How will you do this? en-us 2021-03-19 01:15:50 UTC 2021-03-21 03:17:12 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f92a.png jfinlinson https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330239117 I found it quite interesting for the students to talk to the parents about their work.  I know that unless I ask my kids or they ask me for help I don't know what their working on and not sure what their learning.  This is an interesting idea of student reporting grades, also having them justify to you the grade they should have.  I still trying to wrap my brain around how this would work.

 and how they are going to remedy the problems is great,  the part I like about that the most is the point Tucker makes by saying I don't want you to apologize I want you to explain what is lacking and what you are going to do to make it up.

I love the idea of email parents their progress.  We would get more support from our community if teacher's would have the students email their weekly progresses home to their parents with ways they can improve themselves. ]]> 2021-03-19 15:57:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330382918 cchristensen44 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330412755 I loved this idea. This would help students know exactly why they are getting the grade they are earning by forcing them to articulate through writing how they are performing. This would make them accountable to their parents, the teacher, and themselves for their performance. I think too often we get "beat up" by some in our community because some students goes home and blames the teacher for the bad grade. If a student is sending home a weekly email identifying exactly how they are performing and what they need to do would be so helpful. ]]> 2021-03-19 16:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330412755 chrisbar30 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330459999 I have used student-led conferences and I really like them.  Students are the ones who explain everything to the parent and answer their questions.  It helps them and their parents to place responsibility where it should be.  I have used it often with students in my office.]]> 2021-03-19 16:13:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330459999 sfitzsimons7 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330934304 I really like this template

I feel that most parents and students would be taken aback at first when presented with these communication tactics. However, they are all vital. Emailing and phone calls can only go so much. 
My favorite one is the student-led conferences would help the students take more ownership of their educational goals. It will also allow the student to "defend" their stance on how or why they have earned their individual grade. 
This would also help eliminate the communication problems that arise between the student and parents. Students would now take more a vital role in explaining their performance and evidence to the teacher and parents. ]]> 2021-03-19 17:57:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330934304 NPoulson13 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330972536 I can see the benefit of students getting that immediate feedback. The problem I run into is taking that time out of my class period. I know, however, that doing this will actually help. It seems counterintuitive to me, but I know it actually is not. I would like to do this more...and the more rubrics I have, the easier it will be to facilitate this.]]> 2021-03-19 18:07:05 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1330972536 jlester30 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331066857 In a sense I already do something similar as I test each student to see if they know their music (proficiency). This gave me new insights on how to formalize this in order to show evidence and produce something that myself, the students, and the parents can see and improve upon.]]> 2021-03-19 18:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331066857 jmathews29 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331098114 I love the idea of implementing the idea of students emailing their parents themselves.  I think that this is something that I can implement right away.  I feel like grade interviews and side by side assessments need to happen after procedures are in place for student goal setting and self-assessment.  I don't feel like I can immediately implement these into my classes.]]> 2021-03-19 18:39:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331098114 cholt47 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331099605 I love the idea of students emailing their parents and the form was so simple and straight forward.  It opens up the communication between all parties and gives a consistent check-in instead of parents and/or students waiting until the end of the grading period to assess progress and steps to be taken in order to be successful. 

I like the idea of grade interviews, but would need a little more time to figure out and model how this would happen. The form she uses is good as well. Simple and Straight forward.

Student e-mail parent! great step for the IEPed caseload for self advocacy. I can see how I can hit the ground running with this and implement it as soon as Monday.

I cannot think of a single more powerful way to communicate progress or lack of than to have students compose emails/written explanations to report their grows and glows! Wow, the thoughts of what a life changing chain of events that this would lead to in our community really intrigues me. ]]> 2021-03-19 18:40:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331100475 mzierow1 https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331111125 2021-03-19 18:42:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/y5qgp9lial2f6r5w/wish/1331111125
