Student Led Conferences

We put a lot of hard work into preparing for our student led conferences!  We made portfolios, prepared work to put in the porfolios, and did A LOT of reflecting.  The students did a great job reflecting how they are as a learner and how they have grown this year.  The individual growth and progress is incredible!  The kid so proud of themselves! 

Last week when we finally had our portolios prepared, it was time to practice.  The kids loved this part!  We put them into small groups and they each took turns playing roles in a mock-conference.  They were the parents, Ms. Johnson and of course the student.  The practice went great and I know they are ready for the real thing.  Now my hard work is over and I can sit beside them as they present their porfolios---smiling as the proud teacher.
