I am going to do something I have NEVER done before- republish a post! Ackk!  I feel so guilty for not creating a new post, BUT  I do have a reason.  Our parent- teachers conferences are coming up next week as I am sure many of yours are as well.  I thought the post was a good one that is chock-full of freebies.  I posted it a year ago when I did not have many followers and I am not sure how many people got to take advantage of the freebies!  So…here is that blast from the past post!

*****

I can’t believe that parent- Teacher conferences are starting TOMORROW!  Woo- Hoo!  That means  that in just a few weeks we have Thanksgiving Break and then soon after that is the long Winter Holidays!  Our district was moving toward a more balanced calendar last year.  The Board decided to return to the more traditional calendar this school year.  Now that I have had a taste of those fall breaks, I must say I miss it dearly!  How spoiled I got in just one year!

Since conferences start tomorrow I thought I would share some of the conference forms and parent handouts I have collected over time.  NONE of these are my original creations.  I have tried to cite the original author or cite when I knew or recognized the work, but unfortunately most of this has been lost over time.  I did take the content and “pretty it up.”  If you are the author or recognize the work, please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due.

This sheet has helpful English and Grammar sites
This is a questionnaire to send home prior to conferences to get a feel for what a parent may want to discuss.
A collection of website in Reading, Writing, Spelling and Math
Double check to make sure all of the links are still active!
I  DID NOT create this handout- I just added the graphics and fonts and such.  This was originally on the Mosaic Listserv but the page it was from is not longer active.   I could not find the exact document anywhere  online?  Does anyone remember this link?
I have created a conference check list for teachers to use as a guide to prepare for conferences and also as a guide for discussion. It is available on Teachers Pay Teachers for $2.00.  The check list is a Word document and is customizable once it is downloaded.  Please feel free to check it out!
I will give away a free copy of the conference sheet below to the first 3 visitors that leave a comment correctly guessing the number of conferences that I have Monday that actually show up.  It should be interesting since even I don’t know the answer yet!!!
I will announce the winner on Tuesday!

    I used to try to do all my conferences on the one day provided by our school…by the time three o'clock rolled around I was glassy eyed! Now I beg—encourage some parents to schedule on alternate days. Much better!

    I will go with lucky 17 for you!
