Student-Led ConferencesA closer look…
Student-Led Conferences
• This year, instead of doing our traditional “arena conferencing” on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, we will be doing “Student-Led Conferences”
• ALL Mattson students will be expected to complete a Student-Led Conference.
What is student-led conferencing? Students conduct
formal conferences
with their parents to
display their
schoolwork/progress
and discuss their own
learning, goals, and
strategies for meeting
those goals.
• Students take ownership of their learning.
• Students demonstrate increased accountability for their progress.
• Students learn to set goals and work towards them.
• Student work becomes more focused.
• Students have the opportunity to develop presentation skills.
Why Student-Led Conferences?
Parents need to know how you are doing in school.
Parents will experience a greater appreciation of your progress and a greater understanding of how to support your learning.
Parents gain an appreciation for your ability to “own” and articulate your own academic goals and progress.
