This week's theme is building good parent/teacher communication.
Watch the video to see suggestions on a positive conference experience with parents. Click here to watch. A more experienced teacher once told me that talking with parents is like working a bank. The more you add positive "relationship coins" the more they are prepared when you need to talk with them about the tough topics- the withdrawal isn't so painful if you have plenty in the bank :)
To earn this week's badge, please create a digital Parent Contact Log using a Google Form. Follow the directions in the video below to create it.
Why create a digital Parent Contact Log?
- prevents loss of a paper copy
- conveniently located in one place- your computer desktop, so you have it when you need it
- reduces paperwork shuffle at the end of each 6 weeks because it's already shared with your supervisor/principal
- when a parent calls the principal, the principal already is aware of situations by reading your Contact Log
- it's a place you can document positive conversations or comments you share with parents
