These quick tips will help you accurately assess your student's
writing skills for their report cards. Remember whenever you are
writing these comments; feel free to customize them in order to
accurately explain a particular student. Whenever you have to
write a negative comment, always include a positive ending statement,
if applicable, to show the student is improving or progressing
in some ways. Customizing report card comments can be easy if
you create notes for each student throughout the entire reporting
period. Within these notes make sure that you include all important
information regarding the student's writing skills.
