Questions To Ask At A Parent-Teacher Conference: Part II

As promised here are some more questions you can ask you child's teacher during a parent-teacher conference. Below are 7 suggested questions you can ask according to Stacy DeBroff, author of "The Mom Book Goes To School":

1. How are my child's creative thinking and problem-solving skill?

2. Do you group children by ability in reading and math, and if so, into which group has my child been placed?

3. Are there any subject areas in which my child struggles in school or need extra assistance, or seems unmotivated? If so, how can I assist and what can the school offer to get my child back on track?

4. Do you think my child is being challenged academically?

5. Does the school have a program for gifted and talented students? Should my child be tested for it?

6. With whom does my child socialize most in the classroom?

7. How does my child get along with the other kid in the class?

First, listen carefully to all the teacher has to share about your child in the conference. Second, ask your most important questions after listening to the teacher's report and observations. Third, don't overwhelm the teacher with questions. Only ask what is truly important.
