Communication
- First Grade enables students assessments with other teachers
- Parents have access to their own app that shows their child's progress.
- Students can access and comment on their own learning.
Experience is a wonderful teacher. If I were to do this again, I would introduce this to parents first but they were a little surprised when they got the email. There has been many positive comments about using Fresh Grade especially from parents who travel frequently. Parents can comment, so there is an aspect of having to train parents to understand Formative Assessment, rather than grades.
