As you look through these pages with your child, please look for your child’s successes. Please give your child at least two compliments (two stars).

  11. Sample Letters

  12. Dear Parents and Guardians, • This portfolio has been put together by your child. It has examples of the kinds of learning we’re doing in school. • We want you to notice that we have grown in our reading, writing, and math skills, and in our understanding of the world around us. • We are also working to reach the State’s General Learner Outcomes (GLOs) which are to be : • Self-Directed Learners – responsible for our own learning • Community Contributors – able to work together • Complex Thinkers – critical thinkers and problem solvers • Quality Producers – recognize and produce quality products and performances • Effective Communicators • Effective and Ethical Users of Technology • Please be sure to take some time to sit with your child and let him/her share this portfolio with you. • Sincerely, • I’m proud of my work and hope you are too! • ____________________ • SAL ‘06

  13. Dear Parents and Guardians, • Your child is a STAR!. He or she has taken some time to prepare samples of his or her school work to show progress in this portfolio. • We are asking that after you review your child’s report card and portfolio, you take a few minutes to make a few comments about the work. Hearing from one of their favorite people about what they’re doing well and what they can do to improve is a powerful way to motivate children. • Please take a look at the sample sheet enclosed. We strongly request that you follow these guidelines when making your comments: • 2 Stars – This is where you record your positive comments. • notice improvement in their work (even small steps) • praise their increased efforts to meet criteria • cheer for their ability to maintain efforts • don’t limit yourselves to two, have as many as you like. • 1 Wish – Not a put down, but a time for encouragement. • note ONE criterion they have not met yet • ask ONE question to allow your child to explain something more clearly. • make just ONE wish for your child • Sincerely, • SAL ‘06

  14. Dear Student, • This is your portfolio. It’s a collection of your work that shows your progress throughout the year. Because we are focusing on literacy, this portfolio will focus on reading, writing, and learner behavior. • A portfolio also helps you to evaluate your own work and learning. You will be able to see what areas you need to work on. Your teacher will help you met the State’s standards and your personal goals. • This collection will also help us to communicate with your parents on your progress and how best to help you. We’ll share your portfolio with your parents and you’ll be able to show them how you have progressed. • The contents of this portfolio will include: • Learner Behavior • Reading • Writing • Putting a meaningful collection together will be hard work but we can do it if we work together. • SAL ‘06
