​ Two Stars and a Wish

Dear Parents, We are inviting you to share with your child their Student Portfolio. Two stars and a wish is your chance to provide comments on your child’s achievements. The two stars are for you to identify two areas, tasks or achievements that your child has made that you are particularly impressed with. The wish is an opportunity for you to note an area or skill that you hope your child will work on throughout the rest of the year.


 * Congratulate your child on aspects of his/her work, such as: **

¶ Their successes ¶ Any improvements in their work ¶ Presentation of their work ¶ Content of their work ¶ Their creativity ¶ Evidence of risk taking and having a go ¶ Reflections and understandings they have demonstrated ¶ And other positive suggestions on how they could improve their work


 * Here are a few examples to get you started: **

¶ I like the way you have settled into school ¶ I like the stories you read to us each night ¶ I like the way you learnt your tables ¶ Your story writing shows that you are ‘having a go’ at spelling new words ¶ I like the way you spoke clearly to the class ¶ We are proud of the way you have... ¶ We like the way you are doing your ‘Personal Best’!

¶ I hope you continue to work on your tables facts ¶ Your handwriting is really neat. I hope you can use it when you are writing your stories.
 * And offer positive suggestions on an area your child could work on: **

My wish for you is to continue working hard, and to really try hard to listen attentively to Miss Purchase and the rest of the class during discussion time. My other wish for you is to try to remember to fill in your reader everynight. Good work. Mum xx ||
