Parent/Teacher Conferences: 3 Scenarios (Case: Student Performing…

- - - - Description of Documentation: Aimlines are weekly assessments that time a student reading grade level text for a minute. The final score is the number of words read minus the number of errors made. This gives a longitudinal (results over time) measure of students reading fluency (how the student's reading sounds.) Comprehension tests are administered bi-weekly and examine what a student is able to retain concerning grade level reading passages and, further, how well they are able to manipulate said ideas (make predictions, draw inferences, evaluate, etc.)
        
        Description of how the Meeting Will be Conducted: Meeting is to be conducted either after or before school starts for no more than 30 minutes and in the student's classroom. Teacher will come prepared with testing results, explanation of said, samples, and some method of recording information given from parents.
        
        Narrative: 1/ Introductions (if necessary) 2/ Teacher explains the seriousness of current academic situation (student is significantly but not insurmountably below grade level in reading) and how that will effect all other subject areas if not addressed soon. 3/ Teacher will explain evaluations and their meaning 4/ Teacher will ask for parent reaction and input 5/ teacher and parents will make and agree to next steps and, if necessary, schedule another meeting to re-evaluate
        
        Next Steps: 1/ Parents agree to monitor student 's reading at home for at least 15 minutes each night and to record progress on a record that will travel from school to home daily 2/ Teacher agrees that since Aimlines show a lag but upward trend, team should meet again in no more than two months to re-evaluate 3/ Next meeting date is arranged
- - - - Description of how the Meeting Will be Conducted: Meeting will be held before school in the classroom or some comfortable meeting area that can accommodate parents, teacher(s), student in question, and any relevant administrators.
        
        Narrative: 1/ Teacher will assist with any relevant introductions and briefly describe the reason for the meeting but will make it the first point of order to solicit input from the student. "We have told you why we have called this meeting and before we give our two cents, since you are the issue at hand, we'd like to hear if you can shed any light on the situation." 2/ Discussion will proceed on the basis of the child's input and if there is none teacher will solicit input from family and proceed from there. 3/ Take a look at writing samples and the disparity between demonstrated ability and current performance and explain why it is a cause for concern. 4/ Proceed from there to conclusion and next steps
        
        Next Steps: School and family representatives will make certain that contact information is exchanged so support can be implemented across the board. Regular check-ins with relevant parties will be scheduled. Extra help will be offered to but not yet required of student
- - - - Description of Documentation: Tracking Sheets are maintained by the student and taken from class to class to be filled out by relevant teacher. Incentives are tied to daily and weekly evaluations of said. These form a record of in-class behavior and also give an idea of danger-zones as far as time of day and location within school. SIR's are filled out when serious incidents occur that need an administrator's intervention. They provide a narrative of quality of behavior and receptivity to consequence.
        
        Description of how the Meeting Will be Conducted: Meeting will take place after school in the office of the administrator whom is responsible for school discipline. Parents, student, teachers, and administrator will be in attendance. Also, any outside support (counselors, therapists, etc.) that the parents deem necessary or beneficial.
        
        Narrative: 1/ Relevant Introductions 2/ Meeting Lead will assure those in attendance, especially the student that this meeting is not to punish nor scold but rather, to find a solution to the problem of behavior. Before laying out the data, meeting lead will solicit input from those in attendance beginning with students 3/ Based on the results of those discussions next steps will be devised
        
        Next Steps: Action Plan including specific goals, consequences, and incentives in agreed to, recorded in writing, and signed by all parties. Arrangements to check-in regularly will be made and a schedule of said disseminated. Child will be encouraged to develop and share coping strategies that will be shared with receptive teachers and administrators. Follow up meeting (2 to 3 months subsequent) will be scheduled
