The New Report Card in Growing Success Writing Anecdotal Comments

Big Ideas for Building Comments Comments should: describe in overall terms what students know and can do avoid language that simply repeats the wordings of the curriculum expectations or the achievement chart use language that parents/guardians will understand provide parents/guardians with personalized, clear, precise, and meaningful feedback help parents/guardians understand how they can support their children at home

Steps in Writing Comments Samples Write key learningwith qualifiers and descriptors. Growing Success says, "focus on what students have learned." Strengths Share specific examples that demonstrate the learning. Growing Success says, "describe significant strengths." Next Steps Communicate next steps to students and parents. These next steps should be connected to the learning goal and be meaningful, clear, and attainable.
