Parent-Teacher Conferences


 I don't know about your school but both of my schools are gearing up for conferences this month. This made me start thinking about how I could help my teachers have smoother conferences. Here are a few ideas I plan to share with them, see if they will work for you:
  • Use this google form or this form to help schedule conferences with parents. 
  • Do a student lead conference with this Smartboard Template or this PowerPoint template.
  • Have soft music playing in the background to help create a soothing, calm environment.
  • Have parents use the technology in your classroom in an interactive way (i.e a Smartboard activity, a Google survey)
