conferences

[zale]

Does anyone have a good way to keep track of your students during conferences? Who you met with? What you discussed. If you have anything that you could attach that would be great!

My conference form is really simple. It's similar to the one I was shown at the TC Writing Institute a few years ago. I jot the date in corner of each box. I get to everyone in a week. This is my form from last year. This year I have 20 so the boxes are a little smaller. That one is on my computer at school. Where it says "Name" I just went ahead and typed in each child's name before I copied the form. C= compliment. That's where I note something the child is doing well. TP= teaching point. That's where I jot down my teaching point during the conference. I keep them all inside a compartment clipboard. I like referring back to last week's TP to see if they're using it or not. Sometimes I'll jot down notes on the side of the form if I see a lot of students who need help with a particular concept, usually mechanics, so I can do a quick small group lesson.

thanks!

Perfect! That is what I was looking for!

This is great!

I've been working on a lesson plan template with conference space included. I'm going to use yours on the back of my tempate.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing!
I like the idea of a compliment and the teaching point.
