Portfolio of an elementary school student as a method of assessing personal growth

as part of the implementation of GEF IEO

A portfolio can be designed as in ready-made templates (ready-made “Portfolio” folders are presented in unlimited quantities in bookstores, in the N.K.

You can create your own portfolio. The options are also very different: you can find ready-made templates with color pictures on the Internet, into which you can insert your photo, make your notes ...

Portfolio design options are presented in a wide format on the Internet!!!

You can make your entire design portfolio (this is for those who like to be creative, make various crafts ...)

The main desire! Do not rush, you can evaluate existing portfolios (from friends, relatives, on the Internet) - do something of your own.

It is better to do something worthy right away than to redo the work in the future!

Teacher: Today we will start a special folder - a portfolio. It is not intended for school assignments. It is essential to record your progress and achievements. By filling out the portfolio, each of you will be able to tell about yourself, and the folder will save your stories for yourself and other people who want to know you better.

One of the main tasks of education and upbringing in primary school as part of the introduction of a new educational standard is to identify and develop the individual creative abilities of the child: - creating a situation of success for each student, increasing self-esteem and confidence in their own abilities; - maximum disclosure of the individual abilities of each child; - development of cognitive interests of students and the formation of readiness for independent knowledge; - formation of an orientation towards creative activity and skills of creative activity, development of motivation for further creative growth; - the formation of positive moral and ethical qualities of the individual; - acquisition of reflection skills, the formation of the ability to analyze one's own interests, inclinations, needs and correlate them with the available opportunities ("I am real", "I am ideal"); - formation of life ideals, stimulation of the desire for self-improvement. To solve these problems (in the opinion of many experts), it is necessary to shift the focus, focusing not on the portfolio of documents, but on the portfolio of creative works. In other words, the "CREATIVE WORKS" section should become the main and main section, the "Official Documents" section should fade into the background and be used only as an application! The absolute value of the portfolio lies in the fact that it helps to increase the student's self-esteem, maximize the disclosure of the individual capabilities of each child, and develop motivation for further creative growth. Therefore, it is extremely important to learn for yourself and explain to the child that compiling a portfolio is not a race for diplomas and all kinds of certificates! It is the process of participation in educational activities or creative work that is important, and not its result. Portfolio goals: The portfolio is introduced with the aim of objectively recording the individual achievements of schoolchildren. A portfolio is a collection of a student's work and results that showcases their efforts, progress, and accomplishments in various areas. Individual cumulative assessment (portfolio) - a set of documents, assessment of subject, meta-subject and personal results, individual achievements, which is the basis for determining the educational rating of a primary school graduate.

Portfolio structure: There are no strict requirements (state standard) at the moment. After all, working on a portfolio is a good opportunity to express yourself, approach this task creatively, come up with something of your own, original. The only thing to be wary of is that the portfolio of an elementary school student is not called "Portfolio of my achievements" ("My achievements", etc.) and that a section documenting these achievements (all kinds of diplomas and certificates). The portfolio may include the results achieved by the student not only in the course of educational activities, but also in other forms of activity: creative, communicative, physical culture and health, labor activities. Sample portfolio structure: 1) TITLE SHEET Contains basic information (last name, first name and patronymic; educational institution, class), contact information and photo of the student. 2) SECTION "MY WORLD" Here you can put any information that is interesting and important for the child. Possible sheet titles: · "My name" - information about what does the name mean, you can write about famous people who bore and bear this name. If the child has a rare or interesting surname, you can find information about what it means. · "My family" - here you can tell about each family member or make a short story about your family. · "My city" - a story about his native city (village, village), about its interesting places. Here you can place a picture drawn with the child route map from home to school It is important that dangerous places are marked on it (road crossings, traffic lights). · "My friends" - photos of friends, information about their interests, hobbies. · "My hobbies" - a short story about what the child is fond of. Here you can also write about classes in the sports section, studying at a music school or other educational institutions of additional education. · "My school" - a story about the school and teachers. · "My Favorite School Subjects" - small notes about your favorite school subjects, built on the principle "I like ... because ...". Also a good option with the name "School items" . At the same time, the child can speak about each subject, finding in it something important and necessary for himself. 3) SECTION "MY STUDY" In this section, the headings of the sheets are dedicated to a specific school subject. The student fills this section with well-written test papers, interesting projects, reviews of books read, reading speed growth charts, and creative work. 4) SECTION "MY PUBLIC WORK" All activities that are carried out outside the framework of educational activities can be attributed to social work (assignments). Maybe the child acted in a school play, or read poems on a solemn line, or designed wall newspaper for a holiday or performed at a matinee ... There are a lot of options. It is desirable to design this section using photographs and short messages on the topic. 5) SECTION "MY CREATIVITY" In this section, the child places his creative work: drawings, fairy tales, poems. If a bulky work (handicraft) has been completed, you need to place a photo of it. Parents need to give complete freedom to the child when filling this section! 6) SECTION "MY IMPRESSIONS OF TRAVEL" In primary school, children take an active part in excursion and educational programs, go to the theater, to exhibitions, visit museums. At the end of the excursion or hike, it is necessary to offer the child a creative homework, completing which, he will not only remember the content of the excursion, but also get the opportunity to express his impressions. 7) SECTION "MY ACHIEVEMENTS" Letters, certificates, diplomas, letters of thanks, as well as final attestation sheets are placed here. Moreover, in elementary school, one should not separate the importance of academic success (commendation sheet) and success, for example, in sports (diploma). It is better to choose the location not in order of importance, but, for example, in chronological order. 8) SECTION "REVIEWS AND WISHES" Filled out by teachers of the school and out-of-school institutions. 9) SECTION - "CONTENTS" Do not get carried away with the design of this sheet, as it will have to be updated quite often. Important to remember. In the first grade, when a child is just starting to work on compiling a portfolio, he cannot do without the help of his parents. But as he grows older, this help should be minimized. From the very beginning, try to build the work of the child in such a way that he himself makes some efforts to form a portfolio. In the process of work, the process of understanding one's achievements, the formation of a personal attitude to the results obtained and the awareness of one's capabilities inevitably take place.

TITLE PAGE

Contains basic information (last name, first name and patronymic; educational institution, class), contact information and photo of the student.

We consider it important to let the child choose a photo for the title page. Do not put pressure on him and persuade him to choose a strict portrait. Give him the opportunity to show himself as he presents himself and wants to introduce himself to others.

SECTION "MY WORLD"

Here you can put any information that is interesting and important for the child. Possible sheet titles:

"My name" - information about what the name means, you can write about famous people who bore and bear this name. If the child has a rare or interesting surname, you can find information about what it means.

"My family" - here you can tell about each family member or write a short story about your family.

"My city" - a story about his native city (village, village), about its interesting places. Here you can also place a route diagram drawn with your child from home to school. It is important that dangerous places (crossings, traffic lights) are marked on it.

"My friends" - photos of friends, information about their interests, hobbies.

"My Hobbies" - a short story about what the child is fond of. Here you can also write about classes in the sports section, studying at a music school or other educational institutions of additional education.

"My school" - a story about the school and teachers.

"My favorite school subjects" - short notes about my favorite school subjects, built on the principle "I like ... because ...". Also a good option with the name "School subjects". At the same time, the child can speak about each subject, finding in it something important and necessary for himself.

SECTION "MY STUDY"

In this section, the headings of the sheets are dedicated to a specific school subject. The student fills this section with well-written test papers, interesting projects, reviews of books read, reading speed growth charts, and creative work.

SECTION "MY PUBLIC WORK"

All activities that are carried out outside the framework of educational activities can be attributed to social work (assignments). Maybe the child played a role in a school play, or read poetry at a solemn line, or designed a wall newspaper for the holiday, or performed at a matinee ... There are a lot of options. It is desirable to design this section using photographs and short messages on the topic.

SECTION "MY CREATIVITY"

In this section, the child puts his creative work: drawings, fairy tales, poems. If a bulky work (handicraft) has been completed, you need to place a photo of it. Parents need to give complete freedom to the child when filling this section!

Important! If the work took part in an exhibition or participated in a competition, it is also necessary to provide information about this event: name, when, where and by whom it was held.

It would be nice to add a photo to this post. If the event was covered in the media or the Internet - you need to find this information. If carried out by the Internet portal, make a printout of the thematic page

SECTION "MY IMPRESSIONS"

In primary school, children take an active part in excursion and educational programs, go to the theater, to exhibitions, visit museums. At the end of the excursion or hike, it is necessary to offer the child a creative homework, completing which, he will not only remember the content of the excursion, but also get the opportunity to express his impressions. If this is not practiced at school, it makes sense for parents to come to the aid of the teacher and develop and reproduce a standard form of the "Creative Assignment". At the end of the academic year, it is possible to present creative tasks with the obligatory awarding of the best works in several categories.

SECTION "MY ACHIEVEMENTS"

Letters, certificates, diplomas, letters of thanks, as well as final attestation sheets are placed here. Moreover, in elementary school, one should not separate the importance of academic success (commendation sheet) and success, for example, in sports (diploma). It is better to choose the location not in order of importance, but, for example, in chronological order.

SECTION "REVIEWS AND WISHES"

In the portfolio of an elementary school student, this section is not often included. It's a pity! Nothing boosts a child's self-esteem like a teacher's positive assessment of his efforts. Unfortunately, schoolchildren's diaries are full of either unpleasant remarks like "Not ready for the lesson!", Or nothing reflective praise like "Well done!". But what if instead of the same "Well done!" to give a small review in the portfolio? For example: “I took an active part in preparing for the extra-curricular event “The Price of Victory”. Learned and recited the poem. I independently prepared a wall newspaper, while involving my comrades in the design.

We consider it important to add a feedback sheet, as well as a form where teachers can express their recommendations and wishes, for example, at the end of the school year.

SECTION "WORK I'M PROUD OF"

At the beginning of the new academic year, it is necessary to carefully study the portfolio, analyze the material collected in it. When moving to the senior class, the contents of all sections must be completely updated.

Less significant works and documents are extracted (can be placed in a separate folder), and what is of great value is placed in a special section. It could be titled "WORK I'M PROUD OF"

Portfolio- this is an individual diary in which the child talks about himself, about his interests and hobbies, collects, as if in a piggy bank, his achievements and successes in educational and extracurricular activities, talks about participation in the life of the class and school, demonstrates his personal growth. I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the design option for the portfolio of students in our class.

So we have reached another experiment of the Ministry of Education. At the parent-teacher meetings at the school, the teachers informed the parents that for each student there should be a primary school student portfolio.

Perplexed parents began to ask teachers a lot of questions. What is student portfolio how to make it? What should it be? What should be included in a portfolio? Why do you need portfolio for elementary grades?

After the parent-teacher meeting, I met friends whose children study at another school and found out that they were also delighted with this innovation. But at their school they decided to do it easier, they ordered student portfolio for all grades in elementary school. Portfolios were given to them at the parent meeting, at home they filled out the pages and handed them over to the teacher.

To alleviate the fate of the parents of our class and my own, I came up with a proposal to the teacher regarding the purchase of ready-made school portfolios at the school where my child studies. But, as it turned out, compiling a portfolio is a creative process that helps the child to reveal his creative abilities, as well as to conduct an introspection of his school life for a certain period. Motivates the child to take part in educational activities and creative work. Increases self-esteem and self-confidence. Therefore, ready-made school portfolios are not welcome.
Then I started to study the information... Having surfed the Internet, it became clear that there is no single standard for portfolio design yet.

Having gone through this difficult path, I would like to help other parents who are just faced with compiling portfolio for a student.

So what do you need for a portfolio:
1. folder-registrar
2. files… no, not right, lots of files
3. A4 paper
4. colored pencils (for drawing by a child)
5. printer
6. and, of course, patience and time

The task of parents is to help children build a portfolio. Suggest how to fill in the sections correctly, select the necessary photos, drawings.

At the moment, the portfolio has exemplary sections that can be supplemented with various interesting information:

1.Title page student portfolio
This sheet contains the child's data - Surname, First Name, Patronymic, photo of the child, educational institution and city where the child studies, start and end dates of the portfolio.

2. Section - My world:
This section adds information that is important to the child. Sample pages:

Personal information (About me)- date of birth, place of birth, age. You can enter your home address and phone number.
My name- write what the name of the child means, where it came from, you can indicate in honor of whom it was named (for example, grandfather). And also, indicate famous people bearing this name.
My family- write a short story about your family or, if you have the desire and time, about each family member. Attach to this story photos of relatives or a drawing of a child as he sees his family. In this section, you can attach the pedigree of the child.
My city (I live)- in this section, we indicate the city of residence of the child, in what year and by whom it was founded, what this city is famous for, what interesting places there are.
Route map to school- we draw together with the child a safe path from home to school. We mark dangerous places - roads, railways, etc.
My friends- here we list the child's friends (last name, first name), you can attach a photo of friends. We also write about a friend's hobbies or common interests.
My hobbies (My interests)- on this page you need to tell what the child likes to do, what he is fond of. At the request of the child, you can tell about the circles / sections where he additionally goes.

3. Section - My school:

My school- the address of the school, the phone number of the administration, you can stick a photo of the institution, the full name of the director, the beginning (year) of study.
My class- indicate the class number, stick a general photo of the class, and you can also write a short story about the class.
My teachers- fill in the data about the class teacher (full name + short story about what he is), about teachers (subject + full name).
My school subjects- give a brief description for each subject, i.e. We help the child understand what he needs. You can also write your attitude to the subject. For example, mathematics is a difficult subject, but I try because I want to learn how to count well or I like music because I am learning to sing beautifully.
My social work (social activity)- it is advisable to fill out this section with photographs where the child took part in school life (for example, performed at a holiday, decorated a class, a wall newspaper, read poetry at a matinee, etc.) + a brief description of the impression / emotions from performing social activities.
My impressions (school activities, sightseeing activities)- everything is standard here, we write a short review-impression of visiting a child with an excursion class, a museum, an exhibition, etc. Feedback can be made with a photo from this event or draw a picture.

4. Section - My progress:

My studies- we make the titles of the sheets for each school subject (mathematics, Russian, reading, music, etc.). In these sections, well-done work will be included in files - independent, control, book reviews, various reports, etc.
My art- here we place the creativity of the child. Drawings, crafts, his writing activity - fairy tales, stories, poems. We also don’t forget about large-scale works - we take pictures and add them to our portfolio. If desired, the work can be signed - the name, as well as where the work participated (if it was exhibited at a competition / exhibition).
My achievements- we make copies, and boldly place in this section - commendable sheets, certificates, diplomas, final attestation sheets, letters of thanks, etc.
My best work (Works that I am proud of)- Works that the child considers important and valuable for the whole year of study will be invested here. And the remaining (less valuable, according to the child) material is laid out, freeing up space for sections for the new school year.

Certainly not for everyone. This document will be a good helper only for active, promising and enterprising students.

Many large companies are ready to hire young professionals, and well-designed achievements are an indispensable tool to get a promising job. For these purposes, a student's electronic portfolio in the form of a presentation is more suitable. It should first of all highlight exactly those points that, in your opinion, would be of interest to the employer.

The presence of a portfolio can affect the size of the scholarship, some universities pay an additional academic scholarship to the most successful students and select such students by analyzing their academic performance, achievements and social activity. In addition to the academic scholarship, there is also a presidential scholarship, which is also not received by everyone, here, too, a portfolio can come in handy.

Fans of participating in competitions and olympiads sometimes need a portfolio. This applies, first of all, to prestigious competitions such as Student of the Year. The purpose of this competition is to identify and support talented youth, the winners are awarded with diplomas and valuable gifts.

Portfolio is the secret of a successful student!

Every student wants to succeed, get recognition and a good, decently paid job. Having created your own portfolio, few people will be interested in leaving its sheets half empty. To make a presentation that can impress, you will have to be more attentive to your studies - write scientific papers, publish articles, participate in scientific conferences, olympiads.

If there are difficulties with science, you should not abandon the registration of your merits, you can pay attention to creative competitions or sports competitions. This will also help self-determination, in the process of participating in competitions it may turn out that the specialty is chosen incorrectly and your vocation, for example, is a designer, not a mechanic. It's not too late to change your profession, take additional courses.

By achieving success in the chosen field of education, continuing to replenish the student's portfolio with certificates, awards, diplomas, confirming professional competence, you can significantly increase the chances of arranging your future in the best possible way and getting a good job. And the experience of participating in contests and competitions will help you quickly move up the career ladder.

Your excellent personal qualities listed in are unlikely to impress an employer. Words mean nothing until they are backed up by deeds.

If you want to make your own professional profile convincing, back it up with a good portfolio. Collecting and processing the necessary documents is not so difficult.

Here are some valuable tips.

The nature of the materials to be included in the collection should be determined by the particular type of activity. All documents that confirm your competence, responsibility, initiative will be useful.

Start simple - get diplomas and thanks from distant boxes. Perhaps there are also newspaper (magazine, book) publications, the hero or author of which you are.

Then pick up old diaries or plans and use them to try to navigate past successes. From every major project, there are some traces that can be presented - say, in the form of a photograph.

A home decorator who wants to work for a construction firm should contact a few previous clients and ask them to take pictures of the renovated premises. The teacher should collect photos from children's events and supplement the images with explanatory text. The hairdresser can intentionally give some free luxurious hairstyles to girlfriends for the sake of an expressive photo.

In addition to photographs, publications and awards portfolios often include:

• video recordings (from a master class in the specialty, from an open lesson, etc.);
• typed and printed texts (invented advertising slogans or product names, developed scenarios, descriptions of various implemented initiatives);
• blueprints;
• samples of small products (for example, business cards and booklets made for customers) |;
• reviews and.

What documents to take and what not?

Remember: it is not the quantity of materials that matters, but their quality. An employer is not interested in knowing that in the fifth grade you received a diploma for participating in a school winter bouquet exhibition; he does not need your pen tests from the wall newspaper.

In a thick stack of papers, those testimonies that are really valuable can be lost.

Give preference to relatively recent documents - for the last 3-5 years. Customize the content of the self-presentation folder to the area of ​​interest of the particular company you are applying to.

Secrets of designing a portfolio of a specialist

• On the title page, indicate your full name, year, your title or position, contact details for feedback (phone number, email address),
• Include either a copy of your resume or a short cover letter with information about you in your portfolio.
• Staple or stitch materials so that they are distributed in a logical and winning order for you.
• Make sure that everywhere it is easy to find the date.
• What can be done uniformly, do it uniformly. This rule is especially important for a creative portfolio containing numerous author's texts and pictures.
• Be sure to have a portfolio not only in printed form, but also in electronic form - this will make it easier to send it out. Make sure that the electronic version is made in common, currently relevant programs and can be easily opened on any office computer.
• Carefully eradicate spelling and grammatical errors in text documents.
• Keep dirty and wrinkled sheets out of the folder.

An ideal addition to the portfolio, or even an alternative to it, can be business card site. If you do not know how to make such a site yourself, order its production. Believe me, such expenses will justify themselves.
