Writing Identity

Ms Montilla has been meeting one on one with BOPDs to talk about their writing. We have just concluded writing the first draft of our samples and we are using these as a point of reflection about who we are as authors. After our discussion, BOPDs write a reflection that will go home alongside their samples.

Preparing for the conference

BOPDs have had experience attending student-parent-teacher conferences so it was with excitement that they started planning for this special event. It is a wonderful opportunity to share our learning together. Using Google Slides that Ms Montilla shared with the class as a template, students prepared materials and practiced explanations. The technical side meant preparing slides and exchanging comments with Ms Montilla in ensuring that the slides are ready for presentation. The reflective side meant choosing evidence that shows our learning in third grade. We aim to end our conference by setting a goal with our parents based on an assessment that we will do about our learning.
