I see so many parents with that “deer in the headlight” look across the table when they hear this kind of language. If parents truly understand what we are saying, they will be a much better team member for their student!

I always do an interpretation section at the bottom of my report that “sums” up what Johnny has going on and explain how it might affect him in the classroom such as “answering comprehension questions”, “learning new vocabulary words”, following multi-step directions”, so that we can attach the information to what is happening in the classroom. I found having a visual of the bell curve helps too!
