Student-led Conferences


Student-led Conference
Student Self-Assessment

Student-led conferences offer authentic opportunities for students to share their learning with their parents/caregivers.  They engage and motivate both students and parents to participate enthusiastically in the teaching-learning process.  Student-led conferences strengthen the relationship between home and school and also bring students and parents closer together.

Student-led conferences is the next step in our students evolution that will tie in and exemplify the power of learning goals, success criteria, anchor charts, etc...  The students will use their metacognitive skills to tap into their learning at an entirely new level. Moreover, as we move forward as a community of learners, the student success will reach new heights due to our consistent and collective strength.  

Our classrooms are set-up with the kids in mind, for the kids to utilize and thus there is meaning for the kids with everything in our rooms.  

When students articulate their learning, they consolidate their thinking. As they learn to express themselves, they are developing their communication skills and strengthening their understanding.

The Capacity Building Series (Literacy & Numeracy Secretariat) has a monograph on Student Self-Assessment.  This is a good resource.
