Tip #1 Simplify Complicated Testing Terminology for Parents
Do you dread all the year end meetings? Aside from all the extra hours required for year
end testing and meetings, explaining test results can be a challenging task.
Testing terms can be very complicating and confusing! Help make your end of the year IEP meetings run smoothly with these 7 tips for conducting a successful IEP meeting! Also included is a free chart that defines each type of score (standard scores, percentile
ranks, stanines, age and grade equivalents and more).
Tip #2 Keep Track of To Dos for the Beginning of the School Year
My second tip is to make a list of all the things you need to do to get ready for the following school year. It helps to make a list while you are packing up your classroom for the summer. When you have a checklist of everything you need to accomplish in the fall it will help make the beginning of the year go much more smoothly as well!

Tip #3 Recognize Student Accomplishments!

students met throughout the year!
