To set up the classroom, make sure the room has an adult-sized table and chairs with no barriers between the teacher and parent(s). Gather your grade book, the child's records, and samples of their work ahead of time so it is ready to go. Review parent and student information and make an agenda for the meeting. Start with positive comments and be specific with comments and suggestions for action. Avoid using educational jargon and instead explain the student's performance in a way the parents can understand. Focus on the child's strengths and listen to what the parents have to say. Both parents should be invited and children may also be encouraged to come and help lead the conference.
