My Mom is going to my Parent Teacher Conference tonight. I'm not a bad kid, follow the rules etc. And this conference wasn't especially made for me. Everybody in the grade has one. I'm in seventh grade, conferences last 5- to min. I'm not allowed to go.
What do teachers usually say to parents about thier kids at conferences?

Its just a general chat about the kids & there progress. We sontimes do address problem areas & certain areas which parents need to aid there kids.
Its just all the good stuff. Behaviour,work,general stuff. Nothing to hectic

The teacher will show some of your work and discuss what a joy you are to teach, your strengths and weaknesses etc., if there is any major concerns they will let your parents know.
If you are a good student there should be nothing to worry about.

Don't worry if your good in school then your teacher is probably just going to tell your parent's that and maybe if she thinks there might be some areas that you may need a little extra help in.

I don't think there's a "usually" to it. Many teachers try to begin by accentuating the positive, and then moving on to the negatives, if there are any. For example, "John tries very hard, and he is always contributing to class discussion, but perhaps his grade might be better if he turned in his homework on occasion."

"Your son is doing great in ___ area, but needs improvement in ___." Maybe your teacher will mention you need to participate more freely, or you talk too much with friends. Maybe you're always on time and turn in your homework, maybe not. Your teacher wants to help your parents know how you're doing- where you need improvement, where you're doing fine- so that your folks know more about how to help you succeed in school.
