February 1st, 2018487299041910000Dear Parents and Guardians,Throughout the year, Fran?ais langue 12 students have been exploring two essential questions through a variety of media such as fiction (a play, a film, a novel of their choice), non-fiction (theories on the psychology of love, friendship and personality types), and poetry (pop songs). These essential questions are: why do relationships fail, and what makes me react? On Thursday, February 22nd from 2-4pm and from 6-8pm during student-led conferences, students will have an opportunity to share their progress with you and I will be circulating to briefly answer any questions or concerns you may have. These conferences will take place in an open-house format, so parents and students may come to Room 107 to do their conference at any point during these timeslots. This means that you will not be able to book an appointment through the online reservation system, as no appointments will show as available; you are welcome anytime!The purpose of student-led conferences is firstly to promote self-directed learning. By actively engaging in the evaluation process through which they interpret their progress, assess their strengths and weaknesses, and set specific goals for themselves, students learn to assume greater responsibility for their progress.Secondly, by sharing their work with their parents or guardians, students are more likely to take pride in their learning.?By seeing actual samples of student work and engaging in conversation about this work with their student, parents and guardians also get a much clearer picture of what goes on in the classroom and are encouraged to form genuine relationships with the teacher.?One of my primary goals as a secondary teacher is to promote partnership. I value the role parents, students, and teachers play in the learning process, and I would like to promote open sharing of information and continuing communication between the home and the school.? These conferences are mandatory for all of my Fran?ais langue 12 students. If you are unable to attend on February 22nd, students will have the option of doing their conferences with you at home. Once you have completed this process, please feel free to contact me to follow up as necessary, or leave your contact information when filling out the feedback portion of the student-led conference booklet and I will get in touch with you. Thank you for your continued support and I look forward to connecting with you.Best,Jamie HudsonFrench Immersion Teacher?cole secondaire Hugh McRoberts Secondary Schooljahudson@sd38.bc.ca ................
