    I almost never put comments on RC's. Is that worse? @Sirotiak02 #ptchat

    Report card sparkle- "My fav thing about _____ is..." followed by genuine & unique favorite trait. Don't repeat fav's w/ other kids #ptchat

    RC comments are meaningful for me if they highlight specifics I need to know. I agree that general statements don't really help #ptchat

    Comments on RC's are only worth adding if they have true meaning. ex: pleasure to have in class. WHY? As a parent I want to know #ptchat

    report card comment advice-NEVER use blanket statement. If I were a parent of child in ur room, I'd wonder if u even know my kid! #ptchat

    The purpose of a report card is to give families information that explains how their students r progressing toward stated standards #ptchat

    @WDiaz44 Sometimes there's more assessment to prepare for a RC than what's actually on the RC #ptchat

    @Sirotiak02 I like the engrade grade sheet more than the hard copy grade sheet. Engrade is online, has more details. #ptchat
