Students are more than their academic gradesyou know it and their parents know it. The progress they make in social-emotional learning and character development is essential to their success in school and in life. But while educators have made great strides in improving grading for academic achievement  weve left too many teachers still guessing when it comes to outdated behavior ratings and comment sections.  Thats where this book comes in. Grounded in research and in the authors work with teachers and administrators  it offers guidance on retooling report cards to better reflect the whole child  integrating SEL and CD into any school- or district-wide grading system. Resources include  Guided exercises for analyzing existing report cards Samples and suggested report card designs Tips on improving communication with parents Case studies highlighting common challenges Testimonials from teachers and students \"When you take report cards to the next level  you make sure that communication reflects all of the important characteristics of successand ensure that students develop the skills they need for the future. This book brilliantly illuminates the key role played by social-emotional learning in each students development and it challenges the tradition of relegating the SEL\/EQ observations to the back of the report card. If we want to develop better communities  this book shows the way.\" Dr. Neil MacNeill PhD  EdD - Head Master Ellenbrook Indpendent Primary School  \"The ultimate goal of misbehavior is attention. When children dont get the attention they need through the proper behavior  they will get it any way they can. Children want to be loved and cared about. SEL will help them to learn the proper ways to get attention. It will also help teachers better understand the misbehaviors and redirect students toward positive behavior.\" Pamela L.
